I'm probably going to order a headunit from Vortech that has the right dimensions as they have lots of different options and then design the bracket when I get it. Thanks for the offer Arhethia but I'm not sure what the dimensions of the new headunit will be yet. If anyone want to help out look for a head unit that is compact enough and has the same general design as the turbo housing the TK kit has. Needs to be priced under $2k for the head unit and capable of running directly off the powersteering 6 rib pulley (0-7k rpms). It also needs inputs and outputs similar to the TK setup for pipe routing concerns.

The Vortec V9 or V5 like on the kits for the contour. It's compact enough but you'd have to modify the input since it's spline driven. You can pick up S-trim's for around $800 from the mustang guys when they upgrade to T-Trim's. The procharger C-1 or C-2 are very compact, that's what shagmonkey has on his, they make some noise. You could try out a Rotrex unit, I was looking at the C38-61 headunit. They run at turbo impellar speeds and efficiencies, and essentially are a turbo housing and style wheel, they whistle like a turbo but don't whine because there are no gears in the blower transmission.
