S70 T5 Vacuum tree? Where? S70

Installing a boost gauge in my 1999 T5 and I don't have a clue where the vacuum tree is that bay 13 and eastern aerospace refer to. Obviously, no throttle body on a T5 so that doesn't help me find it. Any ideas?

    For those interested, turns out the line to use is the yellow-striped line coming from the wastegate. It's tough to follow the tube, but doable once the airbox is out of the way.

    No throttle body on 99 and newer s70's, not just because its a T5 - all engines were switched to drive by wire.

      Any idea which vacuum tube- yellow, brown, green, etc. I should tap into to connect boost gauge? If I'm correct, my 99 T5 does not have an extra connector on the tree. I can cut the tube and use a T connector, but I need to know which tube to use. I believe yellow controls electronic throttle system.
