Where to mount SARD FPR with Twins

I know this has been brought up before, but I really didn't see anything that said wow to me!!! I want to get these 2200s swapped for 1700s before the Rotary Rally so I need to get the fpr in. Looking g for ideas of where to mount the SARD FPR. I have the twins. Part of me says over by the ABS and the other part says over by the booster. Safety says booster, but where?
If anyone has tackled this problem do you have any idea how much extra hose I need?

You probably want it under the intake manifold somewhere. Most people mount it to the 2 threaded holes that the stock waste gate control/precontrol solenoids (The factory boost control) on the front of the UIM.

You want to keep fuel line runs to a minimum. If the car is LHD I definitely wouldn't mount it by the ABS, I wouldn't want fuel lines running over the top of a hot downpipe and turbos, that's just a bad idea.

Hope to see you at DGRR!

Thanks Dale.

I would have to move the precontrol solenoids and pressure tank for that. I want to put it back in the firewall somewhere. I was thinking thr same.... no Turbos or DP, but if that's the case it needs to be center firewall or closer to the driver's side by booster.

i have the adapter to fit the RP fuel rail. The only pressure sensor will unfortunately be inline also as it will not fit in the regulator itself. I am sure it will be fine, I just dont like adding so many possible leak/failure points.

Not that this pic helps too much, but anyone who knows the car can see what I got going on.

Where I have mine mounted, I moved the pressure tank to the airpump mount, works perfect.

ZE I actually have a screen shot of your and was going to mimic it..... where do you have the solenoids? Or do you have the "upgraded ones"?

I have OEM solenoids in stock location, I did remove all the vacuum hardline to make room for the fuel lines. With simplified seq, you only need 4 bass T and some silicone vacuum hose to connect everything, so all those metal pipes are taking up way more room than needed.

That's correct, I replaced mine with a GReddy EBC.
