Put it on the floorpan up before the firewall just like in older civics. You would need to make custom mounts, wouldnt be to hard.

nice fab work. is that just a cover plate for the original placement or is that a cover on another ECU? looks like wires are running underneath plate.

i have to relocate my ecu. My stock ecu is about half the size of my p28. It just wont fit. Not even close. I haven't mounted it yet. I will place it alot higher and tuck the wires alot better.
