Default For those of you who are boosted, where did you tap into for boost gauge?

Installing a supercharger on my IS and just need to find a place to tap into for the boost gauge. For those of yous who are boosted and have a gauge, where did you tap into? Would the hose I used running from the intake manifold to the BOV work?

I'd not run a boost gauge off of any other "accessory". I'd find another port to work with.

You can splice and put an adapter on the brake booster vacuum line.

Yes, it is! I got your message. I'll check the connections tomorrow and find a way to ground the computer back on to see if that works.
