I have looked but can´t find any so I think I need to make a new hole and glue a pipe. Or maybe someone here has a different solution?

But this reading is after throttle isn´t it? Coupé Fiat 20V Turbo Plus 1999, T19 Mitsubishi turbo https://youtu.be/O9qrLj3Ap00 Now FCP Stage3!

Vas Unregistered V	yep! Freddan, why do you want to check pressure before the throttle body? V.

There's the small pipe connected to the side of the hard pipe with the dv on it, could remove that and fit a vac hose there to the boost gauge? Death-rattle-tastic
