Cool Boost bolt

Does any body know if you can install a Bost bolt on a 2006 5.9
I just got the bolt but I cannot find where to install it. It seems every bolt on the intake is a blind hole. Is there actually a bolt that goes into the intake.
Or is just as easy to drill and tap a hole for a pipe fitting.

Is this good,Diesel Manor kind of hard to find its near the top of the install instruction page. It also says in the instructions ,that there may be a hole drilled through into the manifold ??? or T into the MAP sensor..Drill into the intake kind of scares me abit.I am just about to buy gauges myself.

From my gauge write-up from years ago:

"...this is where that Boost Bolt you bought from Geno's Garage or Diesel Manor comes in handy. You remove one of the inside bolts from the driverside of the engine block, the two best locations/bolts show here:"

No drilling for the boost bolt, the directions as posted were how it was done.
