and your right, its not directly behind the headlight its in the engine bay to the left of the passenger headlight and to the right of the radiator. That nice little hot spot there next to the radiator coolant tank, as Rallycobalt06 pointed out.

Mine has been rerouted behind the passenger headlight to the passenger fender well.

I am very happy with it and for 350 shipped, I would recommend it to anyone, or at least the tr8 cause the tr10 doesnt fit without modding the crash bar
My next upgraded IC will probably be the treadstone, looks like a quality piece at a great price.

ok cool, so now we're on the same page i was wondering if i worded it right. but as long as the ends are rolled and tbolt clamps are used, there should be absolutely no issues with it. i personally am not a fan of it but that's just me, nothing against Treadstone. seems like their ICs are nice and come with a cool price tag.

any pictures?

i briefly checked out the fender well (didn't take it off) and it doesn't seem like there's enough room for a filter in there.
