If you have a regular dash (vs. digital) you'll have a MAP sensor to drive the boost display. If you have a digital dash, there will be a switch to drive the two boost lights. Whichever it is, if its not hooked up, you'll just not see these displays.

Of course an open hose in the intake stream will leak vacuum and boost if its open if nothing is connected to it.

You might check out the recipies at http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/recipes/recipepage.html for some info on how others have got their 84/85 cars to run some strong ETs.
