Need advice from anyone who has installed a boost gauge on a EA288

Is there a way to tap boost into the intake manifold AFTER the intercooler? I'd like to read the actual manifold pressure, not the hot air coming out of the turbo.

On the GTI with the blind hole in the plastic manifold, tapping boost is a 5min affair. I can imagine with the aluminum manifold and the integrated IC on the EA288 it can't be that easy, but I hope someone has figured out if/where exactly it can be done.

I've asked this in the tdiclub forum in the Mk7 section, but never got an answer from an actual EA288/Mk7 TDI member..

TIA
