Ok got me a boost gauge, I have a t-piece with vacuum hoses going to the following: boost solenoid, actuator and turbo. Which should the boost gauge be attached to it came with it's own t-piece?

Thanks

I ended up using the dump valve hose mate, that way you won't mess around with any boost pipes/restrictor pills etc!

On some cars, there is an unused nipple covered in a rubber grommet, front n/s of the inlet manifold. Use that, if it's there and do away with the T-piece.

None of those!

Safest bet is the line to the dump valve.

Dead easy to spot: stand in front of the car, look at the RIGHT hand side of the inlet manifold, front and the nipple, if there, sticks up vertically with a piece of black rubber sheathing over it.
