Hey man! yup found some info out, hopefully this website helps, pretty much has the same kit that I have. Could possibly be the same supplier :)

I have a front strut brace, but you wouldn't want it! LOL
If you don't believe me talk to Zac. In saying that we were talking about making them, perhaps we could grab Jas's one and make a copy for the 3 of us? Would be cheaper if we did it that way?

By the way love the low mount setup...who fabricated the manifold?

What turbo did you choose? And what is the inlet manifold from and what mods were done to it?

Is it running now?

One thing concerns me with this setup...given how close the the turbo sits to the water pump even though its closest to the compressor side, wouldn't you get superheated water?
