yeah it shouldn't matter where you put it.
if it's in the engine bay there is a shorter run from the surge tank to the injectors, which SOME people claim keeps the fuel cooler for more power.
can't see it making a worthwhile difference myself, but it's an arguement nonetheless - i'd say it would be offset by the fact that the tank is IN THE ENGINE BAY hence would be hotter.
and how can you not fit a surge tank in the engine bay? they don't have to be huge, just more vertical than circumferential to stop the fuel 'sloshing'.
i had a 500ml surge tank in the RX7 (that was weber fed though - less weight too) that was pretty thin but very tall and worked a treat.
