here's how:
sell it for more than you paid for it.
take said profit, buy good rear brake pads, and put the rest of the money you had originally spent purchasing said hydro ebrake, and go get food, fill up your tank, pick up a chick, and go get your drift on.
bitches love it.
notice how i said "get food" before picking up chick**

Still, that doesn't answer le question.
Tap into your rear line at the bmc.
If you are being a cheap bastard and using hardline only, twirl the lines so they look like a spiral crazy straw. Gives them some extra movement. Mounting? That's up to you. Find a spot that feels natural. I cannot figure out where i want mine. I'm thinking the center of the dash has to go or at least get dealt with. It's sitting in a box next to me as i type this. Pretty basic. Line in, line out, mount, DO NOT HIT THE FOOT BRAKE AND THIS AT THE SAME TIME.
Do get good rear pads/rotors and a new ebrake cable. It's good to have a working handbrake simple so you CAN hit your brakes and e-brake at the same time if a situation calls for it.

Comparing Godspeed to Stance is like comparing XXR wheels to Enkeis. Sure they both look good and function the same, but there is a huge quality difference between the two, and when it comes to drifting and youre spending a good amount on suspension, you shouldn't cheap out.

Ill post you some pics of my setup and how its run in a couple minutes just let me upload them. Hydo is only necessary when your e brake completely takes a **** like mine did normal e brake with good pads can do the trick. Only problem with the hydro is you have to set the pressure mine is fairly hard to pull with brand new tires on the back.

Hopefully that helps you out. I had to make a custom bracket to hold it higher to keep it closer to the wheel and out of the way of the shifter. Its really comfortable now e brake entries are cake. Also just make sure you have NO LEAKS. Otherwise when you take her for a spin your gonna be pretty screwed cause your brake pedal will go straight to the floor and watch the fluid don't run out or you will have to bleed the system again.

Good choice going with stance.
Surge tank/swirl pots are a good idea. I've read some people talking about running two fuel pumps on both sides of the tank but it's far easier to just bolt a tank to the hatch and toss an inline on it.
Golden, that seems like the only halfway decent place to mount the thing. Either there or on the passenger side. I tried flipping it so the master cylinder sits under the logicon in a push setup but that didn't feel natural.

I don't have any pics, but on a friend's S13 we modified a K-Sport hydro brake to mount in the radio tray/console and still keep the pull function. We cut the pivot point off the bracket, flipped the handle around, and added about an inch of metal to space everything out properly. Flipping the handle took out most of the mechanical leverage that was originally designed for it, but after adding the top knurled-half of a Harbor Freight handle, the brake is effortless to use, and is in a good position. The car still has the cable-brake in the stock location as well.

this forum has a fancy spell check. if your word has a red squiggly line under it, you did it wrong. please do not post until all red squiggly lines are gone.
