Probably better to do a wideband gauge since your boosted. I run wideband, boost and an interceptor scan gauge. The pcm logs trans temps so when you plug in the scan gauge you can read it without needing to tap anywhere for the sender. You can also buy the sender for fuel pressure and hook it up to your scan gauge. And the scan gauge monitors two settings at the same time so you can watch both trans temp and fuel pressure.

I would do a wideband instead of the tranny temp gauge.
Also those scan gauges are pretty neat.

6 inches after the collector, although some state you can put it post cats to keep it out of the high temp stuff.
