going on what ive hear before, not too near the map sensor, not near where water(rain) can get in and not too near the ecu, ideally where the coil was before like here on mine...


doest actually take up as much rom as you would thnk as its shorter than the original coil, albeit a bit wider. i mode a bit of an ally bracket to mount it using the original coil mounting studs.

Thanks for that, slightly different setup on mine, due to the car.........

My Ecu is behind the footwell panel, on the other side of the panel (2 inches) is the map sensor with Ign amp underneath that and the coil underneath that, altogether about 8" from top to bottom, so effectively coil and map sensor are about 6" apart........
