    unless you decided to slide the computer down so it is dangling from it wires or laid it on the exhaust manifold your good. I just zip tied mine down on a metal plate that was right below the stock intake. no problems here. I've heard of other people doing that for a few years with no issues.

    unless you go driving underwater there isn't going to be water getting to it, but if you're really worried about it throw a plastic bag around it.
    Does removing the spare count as weight reduction?

    I made a sleeve for mine out of plexi and used the foam to sandwich it in. I was bored.

    As mentioned, if its not moving around or gettin hot you'll be fine.

    I wouldnt do that, The pcms get rater hot. Better to leave it ventalated. Mines been just laying there for 5 years with no issue. It doesnt ever get wet, even in 4 foot of snow lol. Hell I even spilled a chit load of coolent on it once when my T fill leaked for the I/C. I swear the car ran better after that lol!
