anyone know where to fit the t piece pipe to run a boost guage a boost guage ? theres a small about 5 inch pipe that goes into the wastegate on the the turbo from one of the air hoses below? but cant find this one that goes to the ecu?

That short pipe is it there is not a pipe to the ecu, the ecu gets its signal from a sensor located in the top middle of the inlet manifold, this measures boost pressure and air temperature.
There is another sensor behind the water pump area but i cant remember what its for.
You will want a fuel leak off t piece as right size and wont melt like screenwash one will!

Or do it properly and take your boost reading from the inlet manifold.
The back of the inlet manifold has a steel core plug fitted that you can drill and tap.
