We used a Holley bracket, but we will be making our own soon. It is not perfectly square and the belt jumps when letting off of the dyno. Plus we need to raise it a bit so the AC lines fit on, they are not installed yet.

So just kidding - I'm like a kid in Ira's candy store. This beast has been a long time in the making. From the plan, to the build, to the tune, everything has been painstakingly thought out and a truly custom piece of kit. I can't wait to see Ira run this car at the events. It will be something extraordinary.
Congrats again, Ira
One request - fix your pictures. My neck is killing me trying to look at them.

And if I could figure out how to rotate the photo, I would. I am technologically handicapped. I only know how to use the internet for CF, finding car parts and viewing short films of an intimate nature.

To my understanding, ECS used their exhaust manifolds with some additions for our use and ECS did the rest.

The original plan with this build was to co produce a turbo kit with Huron Speed, they are great people to work with but we learned the hard way why there aren't any front lower mount turbo kits out there. Every ounce of this car is custom to fit them, from the wiring harness to motor mounts and everything in between. So hundreds and hundreds of man hours will go into a single build, but at least it's pretty badass!!

Bummer that it did not work out, we will be working to bring something out a full C6 option in the near future as our Hotside has proven to convert over to the C6 very nicely on a few different builds including this one.
The hotside on this set-up does not appear to be changed; manifolds, downpipes, wastegate tubes, etc which we have also fit over to other C6's already with good success. In the mean time we would be happy to help anyone with a C6 looking for a hot-side only!

It’s a shame that an easily repeatable kit couldn’t have been made out of the Huron exhaust manifold. Quality stuff.

Agreed, but on a scale of one to ten I consider the installation of our supercharger kit a three, on a scale of one to ten on this build I consider it a twelve. There is no way we could field those install questions over the phone, plus it would be at least 20k per kit since it requires the Daily's dry sump etc etc etc etc etc.

OK, we beat it like a red headed step child to desired clearances, you can't tell by looking at it though.
