What i havent got pichers of was the pipe that comes out of the turbo and heads of down to the IC, i had to have made as the Dv and a vacuam pipe need to be attached to this. Also with the metal i cut out of the crash bar I ended up strenthaning on the other side, just in case if the worst was to happen the fron of the car would still be able to take a good clout.
This was my first insterlation. Since then its been of a few more times and this is how it is today.

I made up 2 brackets to move the IC as far back as i could to give me more room on the bumper

The Origanl air box was put back on and a Turbo Intake Pipe added (will cover that later) added so the pipes had to moved one last time.
