NHC250 boost gauge install

I'm finishing up the turbo install on our M813, where is the best place to plumb in the boost gauge port? There is a tapped and plugged location on the lower / middle of the intake manifold or does the port need to be closer to the turbo?
Thank you.

You can put it anywhere on the compressor side of the turbo. Right next to it, as far away as you can get from the turbo; really doesn't matter because the boost is the same in the entire intake manifold.

Thank you for the confirmation. I have the boost gauge plumbed into the intake manifold, on initial test drive the boost gauge was operating but wanted to make sure it was accurate. I have the pyro gauge is mounted in the instrument panel and the boost gauge is mounted on the steering column.
