I'm sure these are the same as the Fabia PD130.
When I installed a boost gauge in my friends car I tapped into the large black boost pipe running along the left side of the engine, slightly off to one side so that the fitting doesn't foul on anything.

No problem.
If you look in the below pic, just level with the coolant filler cap you can see where I screwed the barbed fitting into the boost pipe.
