So here's what ended up happening in my case...
I went with the SBG "RHD"/frame-rail mount. It worked fine. I used the SBG harness, mostly because I didn't to get it done and IRP was backup on their harness production.
I installed these at the same time as a set of BNR state 2's. Initially, I was having boost control issues with the BNRs so only pushing maybe 16psi, and the IGN-1As were fine with that and 250cc/min water.
After I got my boost issues figured out, I would start to get breakup again above 6-7Krpm & ~20psi with 250cc/min water and 4x NGK BUR9EQ plugs (9 heat range).
I then used 8 gauge wire and some heavy duty copper terminals and did the following:
Between the additional grounding and 10.5 plugs my breakup is completely gone even at redline, 22psi, and more water.

I then used 8 gauge wire and some heavy duty copper terminals and did the following:
- Ground rear rotor housing to firewall
- Ground front rotor housing to driver strut tower
- Connect front and rear rotor housing together (note that the SBG harness grounds to only one rotor housing).
