digital gauges in - mostly

I have had them for a while and decided to go for it this weekend. I got a good deal on a SPA boost/egt dual gauge and bought the fuel pressure/ oil temp(tranny) at regular price. Wow - they are dual read gauges but have tons of functions - high read memory, high alarm, low alarm, various range readout, on and on and on. The install wasn't bad except routing out the a-pillar pod a bit much and having to use the seat brackets; kinda pulls the gauge on one side but not noticeable from the viewing angle.

I just read about the tranny temp norms so there is one question down.

I did use the port on the Bank's elbow post turbo but will switch it to pre turbo when I put the ATS housing and turbomaster on. (soon I hope - then I will call Mr. Tipton)

I drilled out an AIH delete plug for the boost port. I also (thanks to AFE) put the tranny temp sender in at the driver side port.

Now, I asked yesterday about a place for the fuel pressure sender (1/8 npt) and was suggested the port on the back of the fuel bowl. Is the the best place for a true read? Is that port (I know there are 2, I mean the upper driver's side) pre or post filtration?
