Paul;
Having the same questions about the TCU and Wastgate servo when I was at your
build point in the process.
I attached my TCU on the engine side of the firewall, and the wastegate servo on
top of the foot well on the passenger side. I then put a blast tube to flow
outside air the the TCU. In 500 hours of operation no problems so far.
The added advantage if I need to work on either, or replace either, they are
where I can get at them without pulling the panel.
