Leave them alone unless you have a specific reason to do otherwise. For the new boost gauge you may tap the vacuum line that the stock boost gauge and climate control actuator use... It comes off of the back of the upper plenum and branches a few ties from there.

Intake plenum refers to the portion of the intake after the throttle body up to the head (some say prior to the runners); This includes but is not limited to the surge tank and intake runners.
