Question boost gauge probe location?
I'm going to be installing gauges in my truck soon and was wondering where the best place to put the probe for the boost gauge would be? Where is everyone else mounting it? A picture would be great. Thanks.

Easiest way is to go to Cummins and get the adaptor that replaces any of the intake manifold plate bolts, just push a hose over it. Or you could tap a 1/4 pipe hole in the intake casting for it.

Uh, there's a pipe plug just below the elbow. That's what most people use.
