Afraid I haven't got a pic, but the normal place is the pipe coming off the top right of the blow off valve, as you look at it from the radiator. Details here:

You just might have a spare nipple on the inlet manifold. If so, simply run the narrow vac hose directly from there to the vac gauge (no T-piece required).

If all 3 nipples are in use, then tap the T-piece into the vac line that goes to the OEM black plastic recirc dump valve... The dv sits in-line between the TMIC and the turbo intake hose i.e. the black rubber-plastic 90-deg downturned hose after the MAF/2nd resonator.

If you have an aftermarket recirc or vta dv fitted, the same advice above applies.

Locate the T-piece as close as possible to the manifold end.
