So I've seen in multiple places throughout the forum that we should relocate the ECU away from the top of the engine.

I'm trying to relocate mine but can't find a suitable way to get to fastened down.

I have attached a picture of what I have done so far (placed the ecu on top of the Air intake box)

Any suggestions on how to fasten the ECU?

I would better suggest to leave the ecu in factory place. All you should do is to put gold foil beneath the ecu. The foil works as a thermal insulator and should keep ecu from overheating.

Can you turn it sideways?

You might be able to drill (or screw) a couple of horizontally opposed holes in the side of the battery case and then pass a long cable tie through them. Then place the coil pack through the cable loop, so that the cable is between the coils. Tighten the cable tie so that it holds the coil pack to the side of the battery case.
