Can it be done without cutting and welding the headers?

They have to be drilled and welded.

AEM makes the "best" gauge from what I have used

As Baja said you will have to drill and weld in bungs, no other way around it.

You can see the bung at near the 12:00 position. I don't know if it's the best location but I figured the highest point in direct line with the dry exhaust would be my best guess. I've got about 20hrs on it with no issues.
