Not sure you can actually get a vacuum signal on an N55. It's a Valvetronic engine, so there is generally little vacuum created by the throttle plate. I think it's just there as a backup in case of Valvetronic failure or for special circumstances, maybe someone can elaborate on specifics. There's a separate electric vacuum pump to supply vacuum for things like the brake booster and boost control.

Might read these posts or try searching more for "N55 boost gauge" on Google.
