Alright so gunna be getting a boost gauge for my jetta 1.8t I see that on the Intake manifold there seems to be a pre-Taped hole possibly were it could go, If i were to use that hole.. I would have to take off my intake manifold to drill it out and blow out the metal shavings? Is there a easy way? to do that Like tap into a different spot? not sure never did a boost gauge before, Pretty newb! ahhh










Thanks Ben

One of the best ways is to tap into the vacuum line that goes from the intake manifold to the fuel pressure regulator with a t-fitting.  Then run that line to your boost gauge.
