Default BAP install location?

Some say near the fuel tank and others say near the fuse box. Which one is correct?

I used the racetronix harness with my install and they had it mounted in the back. I don't think it matters too much as long as the all your cables reach. It is recommended not to shorten or lengthen the pressure switch lines and the controller lines

KB's are set-up to be mounted by the fuel tank and the MAGANAVOLT is set up to be installed by the fuse box!

I have the MAGANAVOLT in the battery compartment by the fuse box neatly tucked in there and covered with the battery den cover!

Thanks,Matt

Sorry, not true.

The KB is setup to be mounted by the Fuse box if you are not using a Racetronix Harness and in the back if you are.

You can mount it anywhere you want, but these are two locations, I would HIGHLY recommend using a Racetronix harness with it, the wiring setup will be far superior and it makes the installation a breeze.

My BAD then!

It depends on the harness you buy for the KB!

Most install it by the tank!

Thanks,Matt

Racetronix harness is money well spent!

You ever going to get that thing running?

Thats ****ed up. LOL

Business trip to Hawaii and doing this all myself and you want results already? I have done a lot of other things that took up time like tail lights painted, Carbon Fiber vents for the rears, coil pack relocation, etc., etc. Should be done this week though.

P.S. I have the Racetronix harness already and after some research and planning it is going by the pump. Thanks guys.
