Default boost gauge with a KB, easy?

Im looking to put a boost guage and a fuel pressure guage in my car in a couple of months and was wandering what that would entail. Is it pretty easy, Im pretty mechanically inclined.
Any tips or tricks to the install?

it really easy, remove a vaccume line from the intake manifold, install a plastic T fitting, or brass if you really want to but not nessicary, run a vaccume line to the inside of your car, then for power all you do is either hook into your ignition switch so everytime you turn your key on you get power or hook into your headlight switch so every time u turn your lights on you get power.

sounds good w/ the boost gauge. I had a fpr to put on my car but, my tuner said it was a waste kinda since he would change the fuel pressure w/ the tune or something. Idk about the S197s but, that is what my tuner told me when I got mine dyno tuned...
