Hi, just got my new boost gauge.  Of course they don't
specify what to use for the pressure line back to the
intake manifold from the dash.

Seems there are also 2 types of boost gauges, one that
works off of vacuum and one that works off of
pressure.  I have the pressure VDO gauge.

I have seen people use stuff similar to what you would
run for a refrigerator water line, but smaller.
Any idea what the outside diameter is and where to get
it, plus the fittings.  It this common plumbing stuff?

Thanks, 
Bryan
