Thanks for the kind words guys, much appreciated 
Cheers buddy,
Turbo kit was put together by "Ross Sport", a uk trader on MLR(uk forum)
It's a HTA 3582, with a tial .82 housing, tial ext wastegate, and a JMF v-band manifold, comes with 4" intake, filter, all lines and a v-band flange for existing 3" downpipe.
The zircotec coating was an extra.
TBH though, if I could start again would go full race/EFR route....
