On the upper their is a plastic pipe that feeds the vacuum tree on the firewall. You can pick up your vacuum and boost supply their for your gauge.

Can it just be any open vacuum fitting? Or does it have to be on a specific side? Or the top or bottom?

Thanks, Steve

Any where the gauge can see vacuum and boost. Naturally it has to be on the hot side of the turbo. ( the boost side )
