right ive been thinking, my boost gauge has always been piped in on the boost compensator line from the tmic to the compensator, but wont i be losing some form of pressure by doing this? ie causing the pump to boost less? :/

If you really want to be fussy you could tap it straight into the manifold but as said it is fine where it is
