Same here. Poke a hole in the speedo cable grommet and feed it thru. Tap into the vacuum line from the plenum to the EGR solenoid.

Drill a hole next in the sheet metal next to where the steering column/shaft goes through the firewall. This can be accessed by pulling the sound deadening material down from inside the car, just above the brake and gas petals. The line can be t'eed into any vacuum/boost line that "sees" manifold pressure (i.e.-MAP line, EGR lines, etc).

True but if you're running alky it's not recommended to run your boost gauge off the map sensor. Last thing you want/need is the line to break, the map sensor not see pressure, the alky not kick on while you're in the boost, then you'll be asking "how do I change them darn head gaskets".
