Default boost at throttle body

right now i have my boost gauge tapped in at the wastegate, but i was just curious to know if u can weld a little nipple couple inches from the throttle body on the ic piping and tap the boost gauge from there? wouldnt that be a good way to know if ur leakin boost somewher or not, or how much boost is actuallly going to the motor? can it be done that way?
