You will need a couple reducer fittings, but right behind the fuel filter you can access a plug (with the square end of a 1/2" drive extension). Pull that plug and fill with reducer fittings leading to boost gauge.

are you looking to mount the gauge or connect the hose to the manifold area?

Gauges can be mounted in pods in many places, and the hose is usually hooked up through a boost bolt, which is a replacement bolt for one of the stock manifold bolt that allows you to hook up a the required boost hose to.The other way is to drill and tap the intake manifold plate but that is alot of work compared to buying the bolt from pirers or comparable shops.
