I believe most guys just put a T into the line going from the intake to the MAP sensor. As far as the line goes, I'm no help on that, but I don't know why the line that came with the gauge wouldn't work. My guess is it cam apart somewhere or is broken. Is it possible that it was rubbing on something and rubbed through?

Kind of ironic because I just installed my glowshifts this weekend too lol. I did the splicing with a T... works great!
