Is there an advantage to mounting under the passenger seat such as better heat dissipation? I was wondering if it needs to be cooled significantly and in the engine compartment it would be subject to the engine heat.
Also, it would be easier to adjust rpm settings and other adjustments on the unit if under the car seat. Just my observations.
Other than running wiring back to the engine compartment, is there any issues I missed? How big of diameter of wiring bundle needs to be run back to the engine compartment? From the picture above it looks like you will need a 1/4 inch hole or so.
