I didn't get any lines or fittings with mine. I had to make mine up at Cheapo Depot. The map line is 1/4 ID and my line from the gauge is 1/4 OD. I had to make up a 1/4 T with the third leg being 1/8 all from barbed brass with stainless clamps. The map line runs from the base of the base of the "Y" intake to near the passenger fender where it plugs into the bottom of the MAP sensor.

no. the red line is from the wastegate valve, do not tap into that.

yup, all you have to do is get or make a brass T 1/4 on each side and 1/8 out to the guage and you are good to go. Reeders is where i got all my plumbing... Good luck.
