You can drill and tap the intake horn OR put a T-fitting on the line that goes from the intake manifold to the AFC housing... I'd drill and tap, its more fun and easier! lol

For a 12 valve you don't have to do any of that. There is a threaded plug on the drivers side right by the intake horn. Take it out and screw in your boost line. See this link: http://www.dieselpage.com/gibdl.htm -Glen

No need for any drilling or tapping. Just as TxDiesel posted, there is a plug on the left side of the engine, my Autometer gauge came with the right size adapter, threaded it right in and connected.
