Mike,
I would stongly suggest mounting the Greddy in the console, so that it is visable. I made a custom enclosure in CF, but even mounting it in the lower storage bin with velcro to keep it secure would be fine. The reason I say this is that you can monitor boost at all times, as it reads out in real time - so it is like adding a boost gauge. Also, after every hard pull, it flashes the high boost for 5 seconds - which is great feedback to monitor your settings. Thirdly, you can make adjustments to boost very easily, even while on the fly. AND the Greddy has a high boost memory feature, which is accessed by pushing the lower left button 4 times (basically scrolling through the various settings in memory, then the last item displayed is the high boost memory). I use these features every day by monitoring real time boost on a regular basis and periodically checking the high boost memory. IMO, a visable mounting spot is extremely functional. Here is a picture that shows how I did it and it works fantastic. Colorinc, you should consider running your lines up to the front for the above reasons. Having used the Greddy for a season now, I think you would find it very useful.

Hey Buddy, that install looks great. thanks for the pics. I am doing the exact same thing at the end of the month, so a few quick questions. Does the Greddy solenoid repace the factory one and is it in the same location? I noticed you removed the Y pipe. for easy install I assume? You did not remove the headers was it a ***** to R&R turbo with headers on? And finally how inconvenient is it to have the EBC in the console rather than in the dash? Thanks Mike
