on my hawk i t'd into a pipe at front of inlet to the left of alternator that comes out of inlet on 90 degree elbow. Then ran boost hose under inlet and mounted boost sensor over by boost control solenoid on strut top.

No.1

Push a similar sized hose onto inlet then connect original hose to that with a T-piece. Run the branch from the T to your sensor. Tuck the T-piece out of sight.
That way you don't have to cut any existing hoses and it all looks original.
