I just installed a "T" in one of the lines coming from the intake manifold and connected mine there.

in the engine bay, on the passenger side, under the battery's OEM location, there is a little black, rubber plug on the firewall. Remove it or cut a hole in it and feed the vaccum line through there. It helps to use a close hanger or something similar to thelp feed it through.

EDIT - boost gauge - use a vaccum 'T' off of a nipple on the intake manifold

could you please clarify the question. in the title you mention a boost controller then later you say something about a boost gauge. which is it?

and are you asking how to get the line through the firewall or are you asking where to hook the vaccuum line up to so you can get a reading?

My bad for being unclear, the whole time i was talking about the boost gauge. i was asking how do i get the vacuum line into the engine bay, but through DaZman69 and this thread i learned i'll have to go through the firewall or one of those rubber plugs. Thanks guys.
