QPS? Questionable Piece of $hit?
That manifold looks like a Jr high industrial arts experiment gone wrong!

They lost me when they started their sales pitch with this:
This kit has everything required in it to fit your Mk1 1.6 MX5 with a GT20 Garrett turbocharger. The turbo chosen for this kit will spool around 2000RPM which maintains the drivability of the MX5, we believe this is crucial because large laggy turbo would, in our opinion detract from the fun of the MX5.

That manifold just looks like it will die from the weight of a turbo hanging off it. I am betting it is some guy in the UK making custom manifolds and DP, who is selling it as a kit.

Going to go out on a limb and say that'd never work on a left hand drive car what with the steering shaft going through there.
Also, lol @ the giant brake fluid reservoir. (I'm sure its actually the windshield squirter bottle... but its funnier if you pretend ignorance)
