The fitting of a boost gauge is the same as dump valve the only differance is the pipe from the fuel presure regulator go's in to the car to the boost gauge not the dump valve thay can both be fitted with no problems.

How do you go about fitting a boost gauge and DV from the same place?

Just use two T peaces or you can get a + shape as well

I fitted my boost gauge today of the fuel presser regulator and now my turbo is making a funny noise, it used to make a heathy pusss noise's from the wastgate which you could here from the K&N but as soon as I have fitted the boost gauge the turbo has started to make a fluttering noise and randomly looses power?
I thought maybe there was a leakage somewhere but I've check all the vac tube from the fuel presser regulator to the gauge looks good I just can't work it out anyone have an idea what else it could be or is it ment to flutter when a boost gauge is fitted??
On the gauge it self the boost looks ok, just sits below 0.5 I think maybe the Actuator might be sticking and thats why I'm losing power sometimes?

Problem sloved :D I knocked out one of the Vac tubes, the one that connects into a black box near the cat which in turn made the turbo flutter. :P silly me
