Default Best place for a pyro

Just wondering where the best spot to put the pyro probe pre turbo? On the powerchoke it was recomended furtherest away from front of the motor. Is the cummins the same or do you go right at the turbo? I have the manifolf off at the moment so drilling is no problems.

I have the motor set up in a dummy chassis so I can "fit" everything before it goes in.

Any surrgestions will be great.


The better half has already told me what option 1 is and I reckon that might be a bit uncomfortable

Mine is located right on the manifold, right in front of cylinder 4.
