Boost and MAP

I was reading an tech write up on installing a boost T in the MAP line, is this an accurate way to do it?

The other thought was punch a hole in the intake Y pipe

Yes it sure is.
MAP line tap is quicker, but some have a little fluttering in the reading for whatever reason.

To where? I was leaning towards the inline cus its easy, but if it's more accurate to do the pipe then I'll just do that.
