Directions included when you buy it. Tap into the map sensor line.

My rig had one when I bought it, looks very simple. Just cut the rubber hose and put in a "T" fitting in.

Yea - it's a pretty straight forward install. Just so you know - a boost gauge does NOT come with the parts needed to T into the map sensor line. You'll need to get them seperately.
