ECS meth kit install
Does anyone have any good pics of how they installed the pump? The instructions say to mount the pump next to the WW tank and it hangs too low to clear the fender. The feed line is too short to mount it anywhere else.
Of course I picked a holiday ECS is closed to do the install and I'm pissed off.
I'm not welding anything to the car. Had I known it had to be that way, I wouldnt have gotten the kit.
Any help would be appreaciated.

I was disappointed with the little nozzle sticking down about 3/4" below the rocker panel too. So:
Taylor did his relocation kit on my ECS sorry but welding required.

I took pics but havent had a chance to upload yet. I think I found the nicest way to mount the tank and pump that anyone has done yet on a C6 Z06. It took me sometime thinking about it but it came out MINT. Mount the tank inside the driverside rear cubby hole, drill a hole in the bottom and install a grommet, mount the pump directly beneath it inside the rear Driver side wheel wheel. Connect the tank line to pump, Then run line from pump up and around the wheel wheel lip then right through the rocker arm and right along side the original line for the winshield wiper line right to the maf. It came out absolutely mint. Totally hidden, weight on the rear wheels which is what you want, no hacking the frame or fabricating brackets. It is sweet. I cant wait to post the pics. I noticed this original spot a couple weeks ago when I was installing the BAP in the rear driverside wheel well and said " man thats got some space under that cubby in the rear bumper. Then the wheels started turning and it call came together like clock work.

OK, I moved the WW tank up about 1.5" and the pump now fits without hanging down below the fender line.
Thanks for those that had constructive posts.
