Nicely done. I think this might only pertain to A/T's, but when I did mine I just put a hole thru at the little bare spot to the right of the brake master cylinder. I think M/T's have the clutch master cylinder there...So I don't know how much(if any) room you have.
But, I didn't have to remove the battery or anything... So if you gots an auto I would recommend that spot.

Ya nice page, I think the AT is easier. I routed my 4 gauge power wire through the firewall to the far left, above the dead pedal. The wire comes in above the carpeting kinda about 6 inches or so above the dead pedal in the left corner in the back...What I really wanna know is how to get a grommet in there if the hole I drilled is barely large enough for the 4 gauge wire...probably can't without redrilling huh?

Why not use the steering boot? That's what I did, I got like 3 wires from my turbo timer, 1 AFR wire, and boost gauge vacuum line.

i have a m/t, and got a hole big enough for 4 ga, right between the master and the clutch master. it is very tight, so be extremely careful when drilling! Also there is a wire harness on th passenger side of the firewall, it goes through right under the glove box. Its a pretty good place to run wires..
