Is there any certian place taht it should be, like i dont want it to be too close or too far and is there any performance benifits of the position and angle where i put it.

as close as you can get it to the exit of the ORY without melting any wires. mine is welded to my pacesetter Y pipe.

put it on the catback portion of the exhaust, right behind where the flange is that'll connect to the y pipe. That's where everyone I know has there's installed

i guess the theory is to get the air out while its still hot and flows easier.
