Depends on how the previous owner fitted it mate.
Either on a sandwich plate above the oil filter under the engine, or there will be a temperature sensor above the cylinder (number 3 I think) under the intercooler - you'll need to remove the intercooler to get at it.

Is it a WATER tempeature, or OIL temperature?
If it's the latter, then Bugeye_Scoob is right.
If it's WATER temperature, look next to the existing water temperature sender on the front of the block, facing upwards, behind the oil pressure sender, just behind the alternator.
