Hook it up to a vac line, pretty simple.

It will serve 3purposes: 1 reading vaccume and 2: giving mutangs a bad name 3: getting her laughted at buy anybody who sees it.

hooked up to the rpms?? huh! yea i really suggest against it but if your really dead set on it for her then your going to want to hook up the line from the gauge into the vaccum line on your intake manifold. just get a T fitting and hookit up there.
