It should go into the turbo oil feed, you cant just bolt it in, look at the 3rd post down in the thread. Rhys has a link to where you can get the parts from.

you want a t-piece, depending on what thread is on your pressure guage, im not sure what the size is on the feed, but 14mm rings a bell. dont take my word tho.
