for the guys that aren't tapping the intake, what is the exact hose and location you are using? I can't find it.

I used the 3 gauge set up (Issopro) from http://www.dieselmanor.com/ and installed everything according to their installation instructions. I hooked my boost gauge up to the MAP Sensor line as indicated and the needle on the boost gauge pulsated like crazy. I contacted Diesel Manor and they suggested tapping the intake instead to eliminate the pulsations. I did and it works great now. And by the way, removing and tapping the intake is a piece of cake.

Sweetcobra, check the installation instructions on Diesel Manor's website for the Map Sensor line. The instructions are very thorough and include pictures.

Tapped the intake elbow and used the black hose that does not crush when you tighten the ferrel. Needle is nice and smooth now. Took it for a test run and hit 25 psi with a stock truck. Any comments on psi ??
