RE: best place to drill threw firewall
when i ran my wires for the amps i just poked a hole thru the rubber grommet that the wiring harness comes out of.

You will need to find a better place to install your sensor. If you unplug the stock one, the PCM will not get a reading and it will run the motor realy rich. Been there done that.

I can't nobody has mentioned the free and open gromet that is right next to brake cylinder, all you do is squeze yourself between your drivers seat and dash and look a little up past your brake pedal where it goes into the brake cylinder and you'll see a rubber gromet, just pop it out from the inside with your finger and you'll have a 2 inch wide circular hole to put your boost gauge tubing and boost controller vaccum hose through and whatever else through.
