The exhaust does have a silencer, a powerflow one. I think it's a bit freer

it to cope with.
While it was fairly quiet when fitted, it got progressively louder

Actually, you can have a too free flowing exhaust for a turbo.
The turbo needs a certain amount of back pressure on the exhaust to make the
oil seals in the turbo

Couple more pics on the photobucket site, showing my newly-modified

I'm quite pleased with how that particular bit turned out. Although
I'm a little worried that the additional volume of the pipes leading
around the engine to the intercooler will lead to an increase in turbo
lag.

I've managed to get a spare oil pump and filter housing, and cut it to
remove the filter mount leaving just 2 oil passages.
There are indeed 2 oilways - obviously inout. Easy enough.
Size-wise it should definitely fit now, even with the 2 pipes coming
out of the end.
One of the oilways is

I've been to the scrapyard, and managed to pull a filter assembly
similar to Russell's out of an Endura-DI Fiesta.
It's a nice and compact item, looks like it will fit nicely, but might

It's NOT a spacer plate sandwiched against the block.
It's the blooming oil pump!

No room to fit my V6 remote unit with my setup either.

Thanks Russell, Jim
Russell's oil filter setup is quite a bit different, much more

Has it been modified? Looks like a short U-shaped transfer pipe has
been welded in to the plate next to the oil filter.

Might be worth trying one anyway.
The chassis rail down the driver's side did indeed have foam in it.
That's all been ground away now, and fibreglassed over.
