Prosport Gauge Boost Install?

Alright guys. I just bought the mechanical boost gauge from Prosport and dont know how to install it. Ive read a few writeups, but dont feel like they actually pertain to my application. Does anybody know how to do it on this specific brand, and are there any writeups on this specific brand as well.. Thanks guys. all help is greatly appreciated.

tee the line off of the dv's intake manifold line...run the vac hose into the cabin via the fenderwell through the grommet underneath the front fender...you have to take off the wheel/splashguard on the drivers side

ok i can do that. that seems to be pretty easy. except the wiring is a little more confusing. there are four different color wires coming from the gauge itself. where do i route these to?

as per another member

Sensor
Green - connect to green on the gauge
Black - ground
Red - Tapped it on the Ignition Coil fuse (interior fuse box)

Gauge
Green - connect to green on the sensor
Black - Ground
Red- Tapped the same Ignition Coil fuse as the sensor (interior fuse box)
Orange - Connect to stripe green/white wire on the dimming switch
White - Connect to stripe green/white wire on radio harness (behind radio of course)
