Default Vacuum booster/canister mounting ?

Anyone got any pics of one of these mounted, just wondering where to put it.

Thanks !

I was thinking behind the front wheel 'vents', because there is enough space there for one. You'd need a pretty long hose though. I'd like to hear another location though, I've got the vent-light mod so I don't have room there. Perhaps way up in the nose section, either left or right in front of the wheels, or between the driving lights behind license plate area. But again, a very long brake hose is needed then.

the shorter the hose, the more effective it will be..Keep that in mind.

I got it mounted in the spot where the air pump was, it fit nicely and seems to work good, the true test will come tonight when I hit the track !
