How to install a boost gauge in a acura integra?"
A boost gauge in an internal combustion engine has the role of a pressure gauge. The gauge indicates the manifold's air pressure or a turbocharger or supercharger's boost pressure.
if it is a manual gauge it is as easy as following the directions. hook up a wire for the light, a ground and the vacuum hose spliced somewhere into a current vacuum line with the T that is most likely provided.
you have to tap into your intake manifold and install the pressure line there. you can only put it on the intake manifold. then run your line through the firewall. make sure there is no way that it can become cut or kinked. then mount your gauge and hook up the line and the power can come from any 12 volt source.
One can purchase a boost meter or gauge from Jegs and Glow Shift Direct. These meters can also be bought at Treadstone Performance, Egauges and Sunmit Racing.
either because your not running enough boost or your a moron
first install a boost gauge, make sure your turbos are in working order. they should make a 10-8-10 psi pattern from 2500 rpm to redline
boost pressure, as you call it, will not show on gauge,if you have one, while engine is at idle the turbo pressure does not boost but runs all the time according to the revs of engine

Boost is positive pressure in the manifold, so you only see boost when you give the gas pedal heavy load. The best way to check the boost pressure is to connect a vacuum hose to a boost gauge. This will tell you the exact boost pressure when you are in wide open throttle.
Vacuum, I believe. Correct me if I'm wrong, anybody.
