Well first of all you need a turbo or supercharger to provide you with some boost.......

your gonna have to "T" or tap into a vacuum line from the engine. when i hooked up my vacuum gauge, i tapped into the Fuel Pressure Regulator (FPR) vacuum line. if you dont know where your fuel pressure regulator is, 1st find where your fuel rail is? (I hope you know where this or what this is). look to the right of the fuel rail and you should see the FPR all the way at the end of the fuel rail. there is a vacuum line that runs to the FPR. its the hose on the TOP of the FPR not the BOTTOM one. the bottom is a fuel line. cut in the middle of this line and connect one of the "T" fittings that came with your boost gauge to the line you just cut. then connect the hose for the boost gauge to the T connector. then your done. hope this helps

see if this link works. it has a picture to guide you

in the bottom right of this picture, you will see the FPR and the vacuum line on top of it.


oh yea, i hope you have a turbo/supercharger. you wont get any boost readings from your gauge if you dont have one. if your gauge measures both boost and vacuum then you will only see the vacuum readings if ur car is not forced induction
