As the referenced thread in the electrical section points out, many people (including myself) connect the vacuum line under the fuel pressure regulator (which is under the intercooler). An alternative that has been suggested to me is to tap into the hose on the bypass valve. I plan on switching mine over at some point.
You just need to tap into the MAP line. Its directly under the left horn that goes into the intercooler. You can tap it near the fuel pressure regulator but its easyer to do it at the intake manifold because you dont have to take off the intercooler. All you need are some long plyers
He's right!

Also here is a link to our gauge kit. Click on instructions and it has color photos showing where this is and how to connect it. It would be the same for the AM gauges as well. Good Luck!
