Default need help with boost guage

Where do I hook up the boost line to get the pressure reading? I have a 97 Cobra. The fitting on the V2 head stripped out. I don't know where I'm suppose to hook it up to get a proper reading? I was thinking a vacuum line but how do I go from a plastic tubing to a rubber tubing? I do not want to get this car dynoed without having a working pressure guage. Please help asap! Thanks

I think I fingered it out!...lol A T-fitting that has an opening for a screw in fitting. I can screw a compression fitting into that T to adapt my plastic pressure line. The other ends will have rubber fitting ends to just push the tubing onto. I googled and most seems to use the MAP sensor or FPR vacuum lines. Are these lines good to tap? The MAP line I wont have to splice!
