Milltek Valve Controller Weather Resistant Enclosure

I've updated the original post with more photo's and clarification on the two enclosure types (with and without tabs).
 
It seems the Permatex Right Stuff Red 90 minute is best if your concerns are temp related (titanium exhaust)...

E6000 is rated to withstand intermittent temperatures from -40°F to 180°F (-40°C to 82°C) once fully cured. This temperature range is suitable for many projects, but it's important to note that high temperatures, such as those encountered in an oven or direct summer sun for extended periods, can cause the adhesive to soften and fail.
Permatex Right Stuff is highly heat resistant, with the Red high-temperature versions withstanding up to 650°F (343°C), making them suitable for applications like exhaust manifolds, headers, and turbochargers. The standard black version, however, is rated for a lower range of -59°C to 232°C (continuous) and 260°C (intermittent).

With good placement, both will probably work fine but if you're paranoid...

This is probably overkill, but considering I purchased a titanium exhaust, which has caused problems for people due to heat, and I really didn't want to hassle with repurchases or reinstallations, I did the following:

1) I used Permatex "The Right Stuff" Red around the electrical component where the wire comes out of the Milltek Controller. This stuff was a little difficult and messy to deal with and requires some care.

2) I used the E6000 which was included with the enclosure to seal the rest of the enclosure because it's much easier to apply.

3) Then I used high temperature wire loom over the wires.

4) Finally, used Design Engineering Cool Tape (claims protection up to 2000 degrees F).

Here are some pics. I'll let you know when it explodes....
