The closer to the pistons, the more accurate it will be.

On that note if I was to place the probe in cylinder 1 or 6 exhaust outlet (as they will be the hottest on a std setup) what max temp would I be looking for?

Pre turbo, IMO post turbo is a waste of time and money and gives little to no value.

Mabee if you have a 4.2.
It works well after the turbo on a ZD30. Beats sticking your head in a hole in the ground.

50mm past the turbo flange works fine.
