I do this. Battery to On/Off switch. On/Off switch to Reg (if needed) Reg to Ign cutoff Ign Cutoff to Ignition.

It is becoming common not to use a conventional switch when using an ignition cutoff. Use the cutoff as a switch, that means the reg goes between the cutoff and the ignition.

The correct order is the Cutoff Receiver before the regulator. In systems without a switch this minimizes battery drain when off. In systems with a switch this provides the most working voltage for the Cutoff Receiver so the transistor can turn hard on.
