If it's an L98 I'm not sure, but can you T off something on the manifold??? How you have it should be consistant anyway.

If you hook the boost gauge there, you will not see the amount that the engine is really getting, except for at wide open throttle. You should tap into a source after the throttle plates. I used one of the fittings on the intake next to the PCV fitting. Procharger wants you to plug the PCV vaccuum source anyway, so you could use that one if you did away with your PCV.

Hope that helps.
