What would you like to know? Where the adapters drill/thread into the engine? A lot of people usually just drill and tap the Boost Gauge into the intake horn, and run the hosing accordingly. Drilling and tapping for the fitting. Fuel Pressure you can get a taped banjo bolt. So it reads the pressure as the fuel is entering the VP. And the pyro, a lot of guys drill pre-turbo so it reads the temp before it hits the turbo. They drill into the exhaust manifold, trying to keep as many shavings as possible from not falling into the manifold. Then tap the whole to the appropriate threads. Then take a vacuum and try to suck all the shavings that you can up fro inside the manifold.

Hope this helps, if not others will pitch in
