The MSD website has all the installation instructions. You have to connect power and ground and the rest is plug and play with the right harness. Hardest part is usually finding a place to mount it.

Couldn't agree more. The wiring was very, very simple. However, figuring out the spot to mount it took me a couple days to figure out. I have it mounted in my trunk opposite side of the nitrous bottle, there's plenty of space back there.

Just an idea of one of the few places you can mount it.

The MSD instructions specifically say not to mount it in a glove box or anywhere there is no air circulation. Heat kills electronics.

Mounted mine (before the LTCC) on the passenger side kick panel. Easy to see the indication light too.

I mounted mine in the trunk area, it is not enclosed, still hides nicely, and gets good ventilation.
