Boost Gauge

Hey guys, Need some help on where to run my vacum line to for my boost gauge. The guage has been in my car for sometime but not hooked up to the right vacum line so all it reads is vacum ? I had the car apart jus this past sunday and found the line for the fuel pressure regulator is the only vacum line coming off the intake manifold. If any suggestons please let me know im trying to steer away from having to drill and tap a fitting into the manifold.

Here is an entry I made a while back on using the fuel regulator tap for a boost gauge and the tee and other parts I used. Pictures included.
