Boost Gauge Install Help

I just bought an Autometer Boost Gauge kit, and I need a little help. THe line that goes from the gauge to the T-Connector is 1/8". Where do I splice into to add the T-Connector? I can't find which line to cut. I can't even find one that is 1/8". Anyone know which is the "Boost" line?

Thanks,

The line you want goes to the map sensor. It is on the top of the a/c condensor box on the passenger side.

Ditto on the AIH delete plug. Go that route, gets rid of that huge heater blocking intake air too.
Sooooo easy to install!!!!

Copy and paste it into the address line. Otherwise you go to MoterHaven.

Picture is there.

My ISSPRO gauge came with the T fitting and tubing. Quick install, but it doesn't use clamps. It fits tight enough.
