I do have a few ideas as to how i would like to mount mine, but being a distributor of the stuff now I am regularly lending mine or fitting updated / trial units.
I would base any mounting around the main wastgate control valve, using its thread to lock it into a plate of some sort which is bolted into the engine bay.
remember short lines are best - and less heat exposure the better.

shorter the lines the hotter they would get as closer to turbos? I am incorrect?

The valves themselves being gas filled are fairly resistant to heat ie, their performace will not vary with temperature very much.
Long lines are bad - more volume in this system introduces a "sponginess" - and boost control / stabillity becomes harder.
You have to find a balance betwwen short lines and heat exposure.
