Well I don't know where you would put your tranny or boost gauge, but as for the pyrometer, I would do it pre turbo for the best reading. On my friends 02, we tapped his driver side manifold for the pyrometer probe.

For the trans there is a test port you can put the sensor into on the drivers side of the trans above the tranny pan, just unscrew the plug and put the sensor in

For boost you can splice into your MAP line
