The best place is in the interior somewhere, away from the NVH under the hood. Under a seat, in the glovebox, etc.

Sorry, no pics, but im going to remount mine to cover the factory hole where the factory airbox was located. Just installed a fms powerpipe and now the factory hole is stairing me in the face, im going to cut a 7"x4" plate, paint it black, mount my 6AL box right on top of the plate...1/2" rubber legs of course

I know its kinda far away, but I have mine mounted behind the drivers side trunk panel in my coupe... I didn't want it in the engine compartment and I didn't want it where it would be seen. I have a Mallory digital box, so I also wanted it somewhere easily accessible to change me window switch and limiter settings.... no pics though. sorry.
