Find the Map sensor, and tap into that with the T piece.

The map sensor is near the Ignitor on the firewall. Easy enough to find.

If you look behind the intake manifold there is a spare connector plug which is blanked off. Its a large vaccum line, so u'll need to step it down to run your boost gauge line off.

Ill grab a picture shortly for you to show you where i have mine running from.

Srry for the blurred pic.

Anyways, this is where i have mine. The little device with the green sticker on top is the MAP sensor. There is a line coming from the bottom of it, chuck a Tee piece on that line, and run your boost gauge off it.
