there is no boost sensor..just a strait in fitting..you tap with a T into the map line..or get a AIH delete plug and tap it like mine below...it's the little air line going into the left side of the spider...

To answer what I *think* you're asking, I think it's better after the intercooler, either where Ron has is in the IAH plug, or using a tee in the MAP sensor line. It's the small red line in his pic, and he also has an OverBoost Annihilator between the sensor and the spider. That way, you see exactly what you have just before it goes into the manifolds. If you tap it before the intercooler, you'll see a little higher boost, but that's not what is actually going into the engine.
There isn't any boost *before* the turbo, so that wouldn't make any sense.

It's okay -- I've been awake all day over here, so I've had my coffee already (actually lunch, and almost dinner!!).
The job is decent -- I get to manage all the radios on base, and fix 'em when they're broke. It could be worse. We just lost 3 soldiers that were out kicking in doors. That is no secret, it was already on the news, but it really reminds those of us not directly involved in combat what's truly at stake. Those guys have some big-time testicular fortitude.

Hello Joe, Ron, Jim, Looks like it will be another hot one today.
Joe, keep your head down. I hate what is happening to our kids over there.

You will love to watch the gauges as you drive. And you will know your truck better after a little while.
Have fun.
