most T into the map line..in front of the spider pipe there is a black rubber hose (looks like a gas line) that is pluged into the spider just under a sensor..it will go to the map sensor located to the left..just cut that hose and put in a plastic T
in my pic the map line is red..the dial to the left is my Overboost Annihilator just under that is the map sensor...my boost is in the AIH port

Blksiryder, The AIH is not a fitting, it is a 2 3/4 inch long coiled heating element.
Do you have a drill press? If so go to AutoZone, or Orielleys, get a 22mm oil drain plug. If the plug is a flat top with a 1/4" square head drive in the top, get a 7/16 drill dit and a 1/4" NPT tap. drill out square head and tap with the 1/4", you should have a 1/4male to 1/8 female bushing that came with the guage package go to hardware store and get the fittings to match up to your guage line. I will post pics in the A.M. look in the "for those who cant wait" thread.
