Ahh, I understand. The example usage I saw for this test was to remove the air filter plumbing, and connect the tool directly to the intake of the turbo.
As I was out I picked up a small tube of silicon caulk/sealant to help seal off the lines, then I remembered that one of the reasons an o2 sensor could fail if was exposed to silicon. I think I'm going to stick with hot glue, epoxy, or plumbers dope/teflon tape to seal the gaps.
