The ideal spot is to have it located off of the collector, like the FP turbos. The O2 mounted ones are the next best. The problem with the ones mounted on the manifold is that they release more pressure from the #1 cylinder than the others because it is always located there. That will suck the exhaust out of the #1 cylinder more easily (no back pressure trying to spin the turbo). You don't want uneven amounts of air and fuel in different cylinders, it could cause one to run hotter than the others.
