Been looking at these myself. There is a youtube video of a guy installing one on his with the guys at Kraken

Not great, but there are some helpful tips.

I have the Innovative system and love it. My compressor is under the passenger seat and I have the gauge with bleed valve under the drivers seat but I may pop it off and just put it in the hose bag to not have to reach under the seat all the time.

I ended up mounting the pressure controller electronics under the center console (lots of room under there). I used the Innovative AT under seat bracket and there was enough extra room on it to drill holes and mount the unit that houses the valves and pressure sensor near the inboard passenger seat rail. I'd think you could probably find enough extra room at the edges of the Kraken bracket to mount it somewhere though.

I reached out to epic and they are going to be releasing an addition to the kraken system for the pressure control from arb. Just not sure of a timeframe.

i tired multiple place to mount the pressure control to the kraken plate but kept hitting the seat rail closest to the center console. I gave up after a while very frustrated. now have to try and find another place to mount it.

Not sure if it helps you, but here’s where I mounted it on the Innovative AT bracket. This was taken in the middle of the installation, so please don’t judge me based on the mess. :)

Thanks much! The kraken bracket kind of cuts in there (probably to save on metal cost) so not really any room to mount.

mine looked the same way when I installed it!

I was told I could upgrade my current system when it is released.

Can you please tell us your experience with the ARB Pressure Control system and the four tire inflation deflation system. Does it take longer? How long does it take to deflate? Are you happy with the system; would you do it again? I’m thinking about an AAL mount under my rear flap with the pressure control system. I also want to use a an air locker solenoid to tap into my airlift airbags to keep them properly inflated as well.

Did you pull the harness though the drainage port or through the firewall? I saw an install video where the harness was pulled through the passenger firewall making it a cleaner install. I think I’m going to go via this route when I install mine.

I wish I had run mine through the firewall.

I currently have no way to drain the passenger footwell. I have a leak around the windshield that's fortunately only on the driver's side.
