What do you think of this
Can people tell me if this looks alright and how much work would be needed to get it going

that is so ghetto. if you're going to do something like this you're as well doing it properly. also it doesn't say if the manifold is off a vtr or vts, and i'd be worried about the seller's apparent lack of knowledge

it just looked good because it was so cheap lol, maybe not the best idea then, I have no clue how these things work
If the turbo connects to the manifold how does the turbo generate more air for the engine ??????

Fuckall up with a log manifold.
Hard to tell from the pic, but if the plate is angled so the turbo is held level, its probably one of the better turbo kits Ive seen on ebay.
