Somewhere there is a post about a configurable digital display that plugs into the diagnostic socket - I believe you could display the boost on that as well as other data.
Search on some of those words, or perhaps somebody else has the link.
You don't need to tap into the vacuum lines. The boost figures are in the OBC. I use the ScanGaugeII. Bought it on ebay. See this thread for more info.
