installing boost defi boost gauge, need some help

[~JoJo~]

Hi: So my buddy Calvin got me a defi electronic boost gauge and boost controller. We'll be installing it tomorrow, and just wanted to know if there is any suggestion. I wonder if there is a place we can find a how-to or a digram for the wiring.

(thought)See the installation instructions

well there are three wires, ground goes to any good grounding point under the dash near steering colum and then there is constant 12v which i believe is the large yellow wire in the ignition harness and then the turn on wire will conect to the large black/red wire in the ignition harness. and you will get your boost signal from the vacum line that goes to the stock BOV, just T into it. Good luck mang!

NO DRILLING!
just T into the big vacuum line going to the BOV right under the black plastic engine cover.

the install is already completed. The only thing I lack now is a gauge pod, which is on its way from feebay, since I can't find anything from any local store (so hard to believe even Kragen or autozone doesn't have them)
