Default Boost gauge fitting MY96

Got my shiny new knock link, lambda link and boost gauge all sat in the garage to fit. Reckon i've just about sized up the job but not sure which hose to tap into to take the boost pressure off.
Any help much appreciated so I can get started!

Cheers
Ritchie.

There are three pipes on top of the inlet manifold, one is used for the dumpvalve anyway. Tee into this one.
Then feed the pipe through the rubber gromet by the clutch master cylinder into the car where it will come out down by your pedals.
The rubber grommet has nothing in it already and seems like it was put there for fitting boost gauges!
I tapped my backlight into the lighting circuit of the heated rear screen(trace it to the bulb), so when you turn on the lights it illuminates. I removed the panel that goes under the steering column and up the side towards the a pillar, easy to feed the wires/ boost pipe in to the a pillar/dash mount pod.

Cheers blitz, I know the 3 pipes you mean, so its the one feeding from the dv then? Think thats the one on the left hand side as you look from the front of the car.
