the two should have no connection what so ever, unless you installed it wrong. did you hook up the vaccuum hose to the throttle body or somewhere else?

like i said, no connection unless done wrong.

like he said, check your connections. if the light came on after you installed the guage there is probably a vacuum/boost leak in the connections or gauge
