Question Dynon, Manifold pressure hook up

RV9A IO-320. Iam using Vans manifold kit that comes with 18" steel braided hose to hook up to my Dynon manifold pressure sensor module. If I come off of the #3 cylinder port my cable appears way too long. I would like to pass thru the firewall at just below the brake fluid reservoir and the port on the #1 cylinder is perfect length to firewall fitting. Is there a difference in #1 or #3 port readings?
Thanks Guys

No difference. I used #1 as well for the same reason.

Thanks Jeff, I installed it after a friend indicated that it makes no difference which one of the four ports. Installed the hose tonight and it came out nice! How did you make the transition from Vans little hose to Dynons bigger port on the module?I see I got some catching up to do. My kit is 91669
