B.mount cockeyed on the firewall on driverside
C. Get a CAI and set it in the corner where the air box used to cover

I used to keep mine on the plastic cover on the firewall but the heat from the engine has potential of causing it to fail so I did a battery relocator and then got a universal ignition box mount from Summit.

I relocated my battery too and put mine on the fender facing the other fender. Pics are all at home. I can get you one this weekend.

It's easier if you just get the 5.0 harness.

Just don't put the thing in the interior.. I had mine inside the car and heard nothing but that anoyying buzzing from the box! From what Iv'e heard, this is fairly common. So find a place in the engine bay, or inner fenders (away from the elements)

Look at it two ways if you wanna put it in the interior. The first is the noise as was said before and the second is the performance. The noise "hum" is the resonant frequency emitted in the form of electronmagnetic inference. Take this interference into account when installing because I know mine gave some serious radio noise. I put a noise filter in series with it, went to town with dielectric grease on all my ignition contacts, upgraded to better plug wires, and even went and regrounded everything I could and still got some serious radio noise. I think mounting the box as far away from any speaker wires and the local area of your radio should be a good idea when desiding on interior installation as well as it being in the engine bay if you have other items that could be affect by electromagnetic interference.

Inside the fenderwell here. Away from heat, water and what-not.
