for the boost gauge you can "T" into the small hose running to the boost pressure sensor (the black box on the passenger strut tower). buut, "T" into it closer to the block than the sensor, so the restritctor pill still stays in the end closer to the sensor. by "T" in mean when you order a boost gauge and tubing, it should come with a 3 way connector...each end plus into the hose you cut, with the third opening for the boost gauge tube. after this is hooked up you can run the gauge tube along the firewall and thru it when its gets to the driver side. from there i'm not really sure what u run it thru to get it to the pillar...
