EGT probe?

how do you guys install the probe? I just bought an edge with attitude and I didn't install the probe yet but was wondering if anyone has some tips to make it easier and how do you not get metal shavings into your turbo?

when i did mine i put some grease on the end of the drill bit. it kept most of the shavings out, the ones that did get through i used a samll pencil magnet to get them out. some guys here have left the truck running when they drilled so that the pressure from the exhaust keeps the metal shavings from going in. and i also put so,ee grease on the tap to keep those little shavings out
