Pictures during the install showing placement of each major component would be very welcome as well as any lessons learned .

Most shops are installing it behind the back of the drivers side front wheel well. The wheel well does need to be removed. I might have a pic or two from when mine was installed.

I believe mine was shipped out on friday so any info would help me too. If I get it before I see anything here, I will post some pics and perhaps a time lapse vid or something.

Any associated electronics inside the cockpit - if so where did you place those as well as the indicator LED's?

There is a small green LED on the pillar that lights up when the pump is energized that's it. Honestly though when I'm in the 10-12lb boost range and it kicks on I have tunnel vision and can't even see it.

I do plan on running a flow monitor gauge but I am still waiting on a decent aftermarket gauge pod...
