I've seen people tee the pcv hose since its the only vaccum line coming off the manifold.

As your looking at the car from the bumper, its the vacuum line on the intake manifold closest to the rear of the car. Put a T in that and run the boost line thru the firewall to your boost gauge. SEARCH FTW

I recommend teeing into the line that goes to the bypass valve or the one SuzukaBlue pointed out up top. They are both tied to the bypass valve anyways...
