Boost Gauge = Manifold Pressure.

You can remove your upper intake manifold and drill and tap for a fitting that comes with the boost gauge hardware, usually 1/8" NPT.

on the topic of boost guages.......

will a guage displaying vacuum/boost work with a 6.5 turbo?

will there really be any vacuum on this setup?

The boost gage is simple and nothing special. You could use a pressure/vacuum gage, but there should be no appreciable vacuum in your intake. No trottle plate, like in a gasser. Could be used to monitor air filter condition, though. It (the vacuum side) would only be effective during no-load conditions.
