it's really easy,  just follow the instructions here http://www.jumptronix.com/2g_go_faster/index.htm

basically get to the boost control solenoid, pull off the vacuum lines, you'll notice that one of the nipples has a little restrictor in it making the inner diameter smaller, take a screw and turn it in slightly so it grabs that piece, then pull it out, carefull dont break it.  Then re-attach vacuum lines and away you go.

Other cheap things you should do, get a hold of a 1g bov and put it on! NOW! hehe ;)   another good cheap one is this: http://shortbusstop.com/bca/vfaq/uicpipe.html you can get a 2.5" mandrel 90 degree bend from lordco for like $20 then just find some connectors and slap it on.

check out the rest of that site too http://2g.dsm.org it has all the free mods listed. i can help you ifyou need it, just leave me a message, i'm in aldergrove all the time.
