I Would Recommend Putting it in the exhaust manifold ( A central location would be best) before the turbo... be careful not to get any metal shavings down into the turbo! Put grease on the drill bit so it catches some of the shavings, and have a magnet ready to get the rest out of the inside of the manifold

I always tap into the exhaust manifold, about an inch or so back from the flange, and either go left or right ofcenter. That way you get pre turbo pyro readings. I would imagine there are pics all over this site that will give you an exact picture of where to go.
