I've noticed something on both this and the cosworth kit, neither of them have a coolant reservoir. I'm not sure why you wouldn't have one as you have no easy or simple way to check your fluid condition or level. There are other aftermarket manufactures (the only ones I know of off the top of my head are APR and HPA but there are probably more) out there that do this for watercooled forced induction setups so I'm not sure why Cosworth or Harrop would skimp on such a simple thing for the FRS/BRZ. The only time you would see this in an O.E. setup is when the coolant lines are a part of the engines coolant system, but you still have a tank to check fluid level and coolant condition.

Beyond that and the way the coolant lines are secured... zip ties, really? There are 2 and 4 hose securing mounts out there that would look a hell of a lot better than zip ties... I really like the overall design and how compact it is.

Seeing the two kits posted one right after the other.....

Harrop is easily the cleanest setup.

I love the torque! And there's a subtle whine so that's good too. Oh and not to mention I'm on stock tires still. Which is fün. So far it runs smooth.
