I would be seriously interested in getting a top mount log style if you were going to make a few. I am in the market for one but am very skeptical on the SSauto ones. I dont want to throw out $120 to find out my turbo hits the master cylinder or some crap like that and have to fork out more cash. I'll pay for something that fits right and is made well. So, you can count me in if you want to.

no comments on the ebay one? I sent that brian dude an email about the trust one, I'd like to see some pictures to see if it will work on a US car.

theya bottom-mount with a triangular flange for the turbo and the wastegate at the bottom. It might clear th master cylinder but the steering shaft might be a problem.

yeah I saw that but there is no way that a T4 is going to sit bottom mount on a lhd where the "greddy" one mounts it. I'd be surprised if that manifold would even work with the smaller mitsubishi turbo that its flanged for (all on a lhd car of course).
