Tee off the fuel pressure regulator line for the boost gauge is standard procedure, ideally find another vac. source or the BOV.

You can Tee both off the FPR.

you dont want to "T" your bov off of anything. it will slow its action and you will get compressor surge. find a fitting on the manifold that you can tee in with the fpr and then use that for your bov
