Easiest is to install it in the MAP sensor line. More elegant way is to pull the AIH and put in a plug with a fitting for the sensor tube.

I used the AIH delete plug with boost fitting that Pure Diesel Power sells.

I put mine here when i had the manifold out for some smoothing of the cast marks and to paint. I also moved the MAP sensor inlet there, so they kind of get "ram-air" effect from air flow leaving the compressor.

That's the way I did mine, and I just snug it up every other oil change or so. Six years and no trouble with it yet.
