A boost gauge does not go in the Exhaust manifold.
A pyrometer goes in the exhaust manifold.

A boost gauge (sensor) goes after the turbo on the intake side. Some call this the pressure chamber!

-Enjoy

Black line to intake snail is boost on the 093 turbo.
It had a plug in the port originally.
Where the port is located will depend on which turbo model you have.
