The only real guideline you should follow is to mount it face-down.

Mine is on a custom-bracket tucked away on the Bulkhead under the Heater box. Nicely hidden away, but a REAL pain to get to!!

i ve had mine mounted on the drivers side chassis rail just behind the engine mount!

it aint mounted upside down like its installed on cossys and i ve never had a prob with it!

i know of a few cossy managed turbos with them mounted on thier sides and also with the vacum hose pointing up!

It is one of those "temporary" installations that will end up staying as it is I think

What about the fact that they need an earth to one of the mounting bolts? Does anyone address this?
