How to hook up boost gauge?

How would I hook up an Autometer 1 5/8" sport comp boost gauge. WHere should the vacuum for boost reading be taken from in the car?
thanks

Directly from the plenum. Make sure the gauge is spliced in line before (not after) the check valve that connects to one of the hose barb fittings on the RH rear of the plenum - it supplies vacuum to the interior accessories & cruise control.
