Pre-turbo is the most accurate place to put the probe, as close to the cylinders as possible.
I have a Autometer gauge and it came with a weld in bung. I placed it in the up-pipe within an 1 inch of the connection of the manifold and up-pipe on the drivers side. Wasn't easy welding it in the there but I didn't want to drill and tap my manifold in case of cracks forming later.

Drill and tap the drivers side exhaust manifold. There is a little spot right at the rear of it before it turns up into the uppipe that is perfect to do this.

That should give you an idea...
It is super easy.

K Thanks For all answers, I put it right after the turbo, on the exhaust pipe. wasn't hard reads good. Ain't much difference between there and pre-turbo and manifold. Used a head laser to read the heat.
