Do the same as what everyone does.

Place it in a straight section of smooth airflow on the boosted side, usually near the TB.

Do not place the MAF in a location of high turbulence directly in front of the turbo.

Or just dont use MAF at all.

Place it in the straightest part of pipe closest to the throttle body. Looking at your picture somewhere in line with the top of the valve cover, probably.
I also run screens in my tube to straighten the airflow. Works extremely well.

Thanks guys for the reply ! , would it be better to put it the 5 inch intake pipe or the throttle body pipe to handle the most power ?

I wouldn't run it pre turbo.
4" will get you to 4 digits, after that SD can take over
