06 is going to be fun with the Holset!
I am going with a home made log center mount.
I hope to fit the HY just as it comes no messing around, move the Turbo ahead so the stock exhaust elbow out the back fits nice with the car.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_102_full.jpg
I think a center mount log may help spool but who knows its all about a nice fit. I plan to leave the compressor outlet pointing down and foward to the FMIC, maybe go under the sway bar mount to keep it open and clean looking.
Here i made up some flanges and few extras for a few friends. Now to get some 1 1/4 elbows get going :)
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_101_full.jpg
The front shot looks good.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_100_full.jpg
Here is the start of the FMIC i also plan to build a SS foward facing upper intake with 3" and 3.8 SC TB.(thanks Tom)

Here is the build of my custom upper intake.
Make a base flange with a perfect fit to the lower knife edged intake.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_168_full.jpg
Cut some corner pieces to fit the odd shape.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_169_full.jpg
Add 3" pipe and mark where to cut.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_170_full.jpg
Weld up the pieces.
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_173_full.jpg
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_174_full.jpg
Weld it up on the flange. The throttle body is a stock 5 litre.

http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_176_full.jpg
Next mock up some stainless steel bends for hood clearance and angle. tape works good for test fitting.

http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_184_full.jpg
The throttle body flange will be put on next and add a throttle cable bracket with a 3/8s nipple for the vacuum tree.
Then start the fab/fit of the 4" down pipe. Freebie from a good friend. :arco:
http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_171_full.jpg
And this 4" chrome pipe ( 1 bend only) will be part of the turbo cold air intake with a K&N on the end. Freebie again :2thumbs:

http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/10/web/478000-478999/478078_198_full.jpg
A little header wrench (was a 10mm) i made with a allen welded on the one end and still a 10mm open on the other.

I made these end pieces for my charge pipes.
My throttle body and VAM are 3" OD and inside the TB is 2.5 ID and the charge pipe are 2.5"
The cost of transition hoses are gay.
So i whipped up the adapters to weld on the ends.
