i have a 96' gs-t and i need to know how to install my mbc and my boost gauge. i was wondering if anyone had any diagrams or anything? I've looked everywhere and cant find anything. my boost controller came with no instructions and it has another part that none of the diagrams show. its a rectangle piece with 3 hoses coming off of it.
 
This is the link to the MBC install page,

Installing your boost gauge is really easy, it's in vfaq, and all over dsmtuners, but here is how you do it. Place a tee into a line that goes into your intake manifold so that it reads boost and vacuum. I tested wires under my dash so that the lights comes on when you turn on the fog lights.
 
Here's a pic for you on where to tap your for your boost gauge:

I hope this helps you some! :thumb:

Here's a pic of mine. Not sure if you will be able to see where the lines go but the black line goes to the wastegate and the blue line goes to a boost source such as my LICP from RRE.

its not the boost controller its with the boost controller. its got three hoses and not the screw. my boost controller is different than that. i dont have a picture of mine.
 
if all it has is three hose fittings and the boost controller is something different than it sounds like it is just a tee fitting.

Like 98gsxetreme said, one hose goes to the pressure source, one to the wastegate actuator,
 
that diagram doesnt show the tee fitting that i have or how to hook up my boost gauge. are there any diagrams that have that?
