Have a look for AB's threads mate, fairly sure he did a build up for his turbo, he's doing one right now for his intercooler. I'm just about to leave work, so hopefully someone or even AB can point you in the right direction

Hey mate, yeah a while back I did a DIY on putting the standard HT18 off a TD42T in my GQ, link below.

It's a long read and starts off with Tony giving a lot of advice as well but a good read on my journey.

I've also just finished putting a front mount wrx IC into my car as well with 3" piping as below but thats another long read and not sure how much it will help you though.
