Getting started / baseline:
I recieved the kit next day by DHL!
I volunteered to fit the kit to my US CR140, I guess the US had the CR cars before the UK.
A lot of work has been done by Storx too here

Here's Ryan's early mock up:
Note: the compressor outlet has been cut and rotated, Storx did this too, so it will fit close to the IC pipe
this is also the same turbo O.C.TDI http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=268968
used on his 2004 jetta with 248whp/433wtq
the kit included everything shown. the CR actuator, gaskets, bolt, modified turbo, header, oil feed and drian lines.
the header is made out of pipe, not tubing, so it is very durable.
this is a prototype, and it's fitment will be used to improve future kits.
I dyno'd the car with Performance-diesel downpipe 2-1/2" turbo back exhaust w/ cat and malone stage 2 tune and made 164 whp and ~285 wtq
the kit looks like the other dark side kits, with all the parts and gaskets below
with Audi GTB2260VK Turbo GS4 059 145 722 S

In preparation, I already installed:
Euro S3 IC
SouthBend Stage 3 Endurance Clutch
Pelequin Limited Slip Diff
