Default Boost Gauge Install

Brian at JPA threw in a mechanical boost gauge when I bought my Radix 112 from him. It didn't come with instructions for the install. Can someone give me the quick run down on how to install. To which wires do I connect the ground and live? To which line should I "T" the boost/vacuum line? Anything else I need to consider? Thanks.

BTW - finally getting my truck back from a tranny build tonight. Tranny went down right after I finished the radix install. Can't wait to try the truck with boost and the tranny upgrades.

There is a barb sticking up on the driverside of the radix by the firewall. It connects there. I asked the same question about a week ago, if you scroll down you will se my post with a pic.

im pretty sure the black is ground and red is a switched 12volt source. but someone needs to back me up, just guessing but it seems logical, being black is normally the ground on vehicles.
