All you have to do is contact this guy for the exhaust manifolding if it works out cheaper than getting it made locally and then all the piping can be done locally.

I think that there is an opportunity to shorten up the piping and use a standard R56 Air to Air IC over the top I.e Subby style. This would shorten up the piping significantly and assist with efficiency. We know there is room under a Cooper S Bonnet but a few mods or a change wouldn't hurt?. Might be a good opportunity to do something different with the Coopers bonnet if it works out cost effective. Have to vent the Cooper Bonnet! Obviously there is room for it all to fit. Might have to few bits here and there but nothing major by the looks. You'd expect a 20% increase in power without lag if you did you the new Turbo. Depending on the compression ratio would be the safe boost levels.
