Need to hook up adjustable map sensor-what can I use as a 12 volt power supply?

I'm ordering the adjustable map sensor from turbo city on Monday and I need to hook it up to a 12 volt power supply. Should I hook it up to the battery or is there some other place to wire it?

I have the same MAP. I found a wire with a multimeter that was hot when the key was on and spliced it on to that wire with a connector. Just search around with the multimeter and you will find a hot wire. I could tell a small difference with thier MAP but not enough to justify $80...let me know how yours goes and reacts to the new sensor.
