Well damn I guess I didn't take any pics of the mounts. I will try to take some tomorrow. the upper mounts to the lower bolt holes for the original rad. The lower mounts to existing holes in the frame. For the fan, I am using a flex-a-lite black magic fan mounted as a puller. It hangs a little low but only about 1.5" below the stock bumper.

I think your BOV is in the wrong spot Shouldnt it be after the turbo?

He has it in the right spot. It is mounted on the intercooler then has it recirculated back into the intake.

This is the upper mount. The driver side is exactly the same. Mounting this way gave the radiator a little bit of flex (room for error) and is solidly mounted with the intercooler.

Hey Duct Lover is that a custom set up or a kit? I'm going Vmount very soon and I'm gathering all parts and info on kits now. I've read bad things on one kit that I'm not goin to speak on, and that is due to fitment issues...
Any info will help, I'm not trying to copy your kit. I'm just looking for info for my future setup.
Thanks
