If you want to install it right now, yes tap into a vacuum source. But Shmoo told me to get the Golden Eagle vacuum manifold for like 34$ shipped and it's amazing. Looks awesome to.

Tapping into a vacuum line is the easiest way to do it. Unless you really want to drill and tap into your intake manifold, just tap into a non-critical vac line.

The FPR vacuum line is probably the easiest to tap into.
