Default Boost gauge on a Stillen SC

Hello everyone, I hope someone could help me with this.
I bought a Defi boost gauge and I don't know where to connect the T connector.
Picture will be great, and YES I already try to find it using the SEARCH..
Thank you in advance..

tee into the small line (1/8") that comes off the plenum. this is the pressure sensing line that goes to the fuel/timing box. any other line will not give you a boost reading.

I suggest T-ing into the pressure sensing line coming off the EMU. The further away from the blower you are the more accurate the reading is.You can T into the line like 4" away from the EMU.This is the way STILLEN did mine.Reason being if you ever get belt slippage you know for sure,and you are consistant reading 6,7,8lbs of boost depending on what stage youre on.

The Stillen pictured above was on my FX so the STB is probably odd to the Z drivers.
