Vac Gauge routing

So, where has everyone tapped into to install their vac gauges? Pictures? :)

(This is for the N/A, not the turbo, like the other thread on this topic)

I don't have pics but the best place is a nipple as close to the engine as possible, like on the LIM. Don't T off too many gauges from the same source if possible.

same place as a boost guage on the TII, T into the boost sensor line.

Can you explain? I am assuming it will make the readings slightly off? I have my mechanical boost gauge, BOV, and TT with electronic boot gauge all tee'd coming from the source. My mechanical boost gauge reads 10kpa lower than my electronic one. Is this because the electronic one is more precise or the readings are off because of how I routed my hoses. By the way all the the gauges are blitz.

Mechanical gauges tend to be more precise, in _MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE_
