[Biturbos4] where to plumb for boost gauge ?

[Erik De Bonte]

Would the car detect that it's running lean and throw an error code?

I have a AWE vent boost gauge, it's awesome.  I connected the hose to
the fuel pressure regulator as described in AWE's installation guide, so
far so good, except I noticed a crack on the outside of the hose last
week at the driving school.  When I mentioned this to the chief
instructor Keith Anderson (long time ACNA instructor and VP), he said I
really should relocate the tap-in point, because a leak there can case
the car to run lean, that's very very bad.  I'm aware of that but that
location just seems so convineient.  Once I have some time I'll buy a
braided rubber hose I'll look into relocating the tap-in point so the
manifold pressure sensing line, which is the proper way to connect a
boost gauge.  I did that on my ex-A4, just need to figure out where it
is in the S4.
