Question Greddy Electronic Boost gauge help!

I have my manifold off, and i can't seem to find the FPR. I'm installing the greddy electronic warning boost gauge. It needs to have a vaccuum hose run from the manifold and pressure regulator to a pressure sensor. In the diagram i only see one vaccuum hose going from the pressure regulator, it seems its hooked to something else, whats the deal with this? Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks,
Kevin

What kind of car do you have? I'm assuming you mean intake manifold, but maybe you mean exhaust. Anyways, if you look at the intake mani (from the left side of the car), there is a small vacuum hose that comes off of it on the towards the left under the intercooler (goes to the FPR). You don't need to tap this line, there is a multitude of vacuum hoses that will work in that general area, althought I tapped that one. You may want to get some more vacuum hose and replace it, mine was very brittle and broke apart (I have 73k original miles). Install the greddy sensor somewhere close to the stock pressure sensor by the strut tower. I drilled just under the pressure sensor into the wheel well (which is a bitch to get the bolt on but it looks cleaner). Use the T fitting and cut one of the vacuum hoses, and insert the hose that goes to the greddy sensor. I drilled a hole for the wires to come out on the top of the passanger side floor mat area, and routed the wires back through the stereo (my guages are where the stereo was. If yours will be in a pillar you'll have to route accordingly.
