I just got my mount and gear legs back from the powder-coater and before I mount them to the fuse for good, I'd like to work out the firewall penetrations.  I think at this point I'll be using a single throttle body, short intake runners into a log manifold and a single turbocharger.


I already have an ec-2 (thinking about popping for an ec-3)  I'm running a  Tech Welding bed-style mount.


Penetrations that I still need that I can think of:


Throttle
Engine harness (I think that EGT will be okay to go with the rest of the wires but I'm not sure, I've got some reading to do)
Fuel feed
Fuel return
Power
Ground
MAP
Heat (not sure if I'll go with H20 or Muff)


Who has an rv-7 or rv-9 and has worked out the proper locations for these penetrations?


Am I missing some?


Do you have a similar airframe?  I'll take your experience too.
