How should I connect my Interceptor?

Ok i just got my interceptor today and i'm planning on installing it tomorrow. i have a 2 gauge pillar because i want to keep my stock boost gauge in it's place. what i'm wondering is, what is the best method to hook up the interceptor? splicing it into the power (pink/red) wire that the stock boost gauge uses or run it to the fuse box or another route? thanks guys..

Splice the power off of the stock boost gauge, I dont have a fuse and I have 2 of them running off of it, good luck!

^^ definatley, they are clean and low chance of error, just make sure you get the right size to fit the wire, too big and you may have faulty connection on your interceptor, too small and you risk loosing connection to your boost guage

ya if you go into the menu and find the option that is call performance, i think that is the name of it. if you select that it will tell you to stop the car. then just take off like you're running a 1/4 mile and it will give you a rough calculation i believe.
