I am installing my 12 mm compensated Ip tomorrow and the old one didn't have one, so where do you get your vacuum from ?

The compensator needs boost pressure not vacuum.

If you are referring to the A/C Idle up, that comes from a vac operated switch on the firewall, if you dont have that, you'll need one or block the port off

Ahh sorry I hadn't really looked at it yet I assumed it was vaccum,so where from then ? Frome.the wast gste feed ?,I have my boost gauge coming out if my intake but will that affect my boost reading?

Depending on your setup you'd be better off drill and tap a new hole in the intake manifold imo. Too many t's coming from the one spot can end up causing you drama's if something gives up the ghost/leaks.
Leave the waste-gate feed alone, if you really want to tee it off i'd use the boost gauge line assuming they're separate.

I used my waste gate feed but do agree with old mate above with the boost feed if its close to inlet, etc.
