Air pressure sensor

Hi,
I'm in the process of placing all the sensors for the fuel injection system on my build and I'm not sure what to do with the air pressure sensor. On a Guzzi, this is plumbed into the induction side of the air filter box, however Trikings don't keep the air box. Do I just leave it open to atmospheric pressure? Or maybe plumb it into to one or both air filters? Wondering what others have done so interested in peoples opinions.
Thanks,
Andy.

Mine is mounted to a fabricated bracket above the transmission. It was not plumbed to anything, just open to the atmosphere. I did try plumbing it to the end of one of my K&N filters to see if it would make any difference. Didn't do much but seemed a little less stable during heavy acceleration and deceleration. I left the short length of vacuum hose on the sensor and mounted the free end of the hose farther back under the cowl to get it away from the engine. Seems to be fine this way

Carefully cut a slot in the end of the air filter [K&N] and pushed it in there as recommended, works well.

Thanks to all for sharing your solutions, I shall be plumbing the sensor into one of the air filters.
