boost install

Where do I tie in the boost gauge hose ? I tryed every connection to hoses on the passengers side of the motor. I blew into the hose and got a reading so I know the hose is not pinched anywhere. Please give specific location of connection.

On my '03 the factory sensor is located on top of the A/C box on the passenger side firewall. It's got 3 nuts holding an angled bracket to the box. The rubber hose is connected to this sensor.

Is the existing boost about a 3/8 inch diameter comming from the top of the engine. I was looking for an 1/8 inch hose to connect to.
