Default Vacuum Lines to BOV...

I'm just trying to figure out the vacuum or boost lines to the BOV, Boost Gauge, and the Wastegate. I have a lil tab coming off the compressor outlet so I will probably use that to connect to my wastegate but I was trying to figure out from where should I connect the boost gauge and the BOV. Should I hook it up to the hole on the Intake Manifold after the Throttle body or should I make a new hole on the charge pipe and T it off to the BOV and the boost gauge?

Or can I just use the line from the compressor housing? Any thoughts?

Thanks

Yes after the throttle boady.Most people make a vacume manifold and like Doc said tie it to the vacume line for the F.P.R.The vac. mani. just makes it easier to tie everything in that need vaccume.
