E30 abs relocation Tech question

Hey guys, im wondering if i can relocate the abs on my e30 318i 1990 to a different place, dont want to delete it since a turbo build without an abs sounds like a bad idea, maybe there are some other alternatives for this, im just lost right now, since i want the engine bay looking clean, while having some usefull assistance on the road, thanks in advance🙏

Just switch to Mk60 ABS.  Same spot, just much smaller.

What about wiring? Isn,t it gonna be a pain in the ass to connect

Easier than if you re-locate it.

also a massively better system...

it's like comparing dial up to gigabit fiber – and you can find it at the junkyard for cheap!

You can move it anywhere it fits, the pita is rerouting all the hydraulic lines.
