Default Moving of Charcoal canister again

I"ve searched and searched.. but I haven't seen any permanent location pics of where people have mounted the charcoal canister. I know a lot of people have deleted them... but I'm not fond of the idea of deleting it. Where do you guys mount it?(for those that has kept them ) ( I have a few ideas from search as to where the PCM can go though. )

I also have a question as to those that has used part of the old accordian tube as clamps.. wouldn't that portion cause turbulance? ( the air comes in smooth then hits that area and WAM.. turbulance )

In my search it also said for */C turbulance isn't that much of an issue?? (as long as the MAF sensor gets a good reading ? )

Hi buddy Looking under our hoods there isn't a lot of room for the cannister to be relocated. Some have taken it out of the hole and moved it slightly forward. That is probably the next possible place.

Is the assumption here that you are putting an intake filter in the cannister location? Or just to move it so the purge valve doesn't hit your heat shield box?
