I had an install thread. It should still be here somewhere. I basically got some angle bar at the Lowes spare metal section. The kind with slots cut in it. I cut 2 foot long sections and used self tapping screws to hold them down to the car. I mounted it on the right side of the spare tire well. Beside the battery. I put them parallel, front to back of the car, with the space btw them being the width of my tank. I then used 2 huge worm clamps on either end of the tank and tightened it down with a drill. It wouldn't budge a mm. Super secure. The only thing I could see that you specifically should look into is a tank with baffles.

I am not sure this will fit width wide as I cant find the dimensions but I think you could find a way to mount this. The spec C tank is popular with STI owners running meth

cause i cant run any more boost on my turbo without being out of the effeciency and, why not **** it i can walk call a tow truck and be done with it or i will push the car or just do what i gotta do. Don't have a wife joe so that wont be happening. If your car isn't as bad *** as it can be then what is the point in driving it. Watered down supercars are for ******, i want the ability to do 0-100 fast 100-0 fast and smoke anything in sight. Dont be such a newb man risk is inherent to greatness.

Dimensions are 7 3/4" x 12 3/4" x 7 3/4".
2.5 Gallon Tank DevilsOwn Injection
My fitting is located on the slanted section near the bottom of the tank, with that fitting aimed at the back of the car (figured I'd be under acceleration when the water is on so I want the water sloshing towards it).

For others who may be considering this tank, it is available from US Plastic for under $25. Cap sold separately, make sure you add one to the cart. Credit goes to Y8S for this info. For your convenience their full selection of small multi-purpose tanks and caps can be found here
For mounting I purchased a tie down/eye-bolt set from Harbor Freight on sale for $8. Sorry, no pics. I haven't installed my tank yet, but the mounting position will be similar to Joe's

It's not a great picture, but this is the set-up that FM did for me. Tank is about 2 liters and sits just to the right of the jack storage area (jack is long gone and a compressor/inflatant kit has taken its place).
It's not ideal as I can't run it too low without the fluid sloshing away from the pick-up under acceleration, but the Hydramist mapping only uses the right amount of methanol mix that's needed, so a tank lasts quite a while, even when lapping.
