E99 boost gauge fitting location

Ok, i'm new to the E99's, only had mine about 2 weeks... workin' on the normal mods... DIY intake, straight pipe, and a Stancor GPR happened over the weekend.

But I need some gauges. Got 'em sittin in the boxes, but it's more an issue of where to get the boost line hooked up. On my 2000, it was easy, I removed the AIH, and stuck the boost line there. Looking at my E99, there seems to be a threaded fitting, with a line coming out of it, dead center of the intake manifold. The line goes from the fitting, to the pass. side of the truck, just over near the A/C unit, dead ends at a thing with wires. Can I remove the threaded peice, and install a 'tee' there? What have you other E99 people done? Got any pictures? All advice welcome...

Put a "T" in the line that goes from the spyder to the MAP sensor. Tie into that "T" for your boost gauge.

Any idea what threads the fitting going into the spider is? Metric, standard NPT? What size? Be nice to have the parts sitting here before I tear into it...
