What's the best place for me to tap for my boost gauge on my L36?

I have an Autometer SportComp2 sitting in a box and haven't gotten to throw it on my Monte yet haha

Im not sure on your L36 vacuum config, but I tapped in to the vacuum line at the firewall side of the motor close to the MAP.

That is a W-body. I think that was a ZZP kit IIRC. it could be adapted to fit a Gbody but not a direct bolt on.

As for the vac source, you can tap into pretty much any vac source on the engine.. If you only have a "Boost" not a "Boost/Vac" then you can tap right into the boost pipe.

FYI you can also use a Syclone/Typhoon/TGP AITS that threads into the boost pipe so that it doesnt pop out under boost.
