All I had to do was make a small pipe to link the exhaust to the turbo and then basically clock it and get two silicone tubes, one for the air filer and one for the outlet to intake. I ran mine both without and with an intercooler. The compressor housing was touching the engine bay just slightly which resulted in a nasty vibration when turning, so I bent a section of the body to give clearance. I later found out my engine mount had collapsed so that probably would have fixed it, it needed that extra inch of height to clear. Currently I am running a bigger turbo and new manifold. I still have the HX30 and adapter...
