Marques,
It will not fit under the front cross-member with the fuel distributor
mounted as it needs to be. Trust this, or you'll end up in the same
predicament I was in and have to scramble tosource and re-mount the Urq
stuff just when you think you have everything together.
Fit check everything well in advance - manifolds, pipe layout w/ respect to
turbo orientation and intercooler piping. I forget specifics, but had to
use the UrQ fuel distributor - I think it had to do with the adjustment hole
and other things which caused the 5kt one to interfere. You will have fun
figuring out the fuel-lines and pressure regulators, external mounted
frequency valve. As I recall, I had used a combo of UrQ, CGT and 5kt CIS
metering components.
I have duplicate/extra CIS components. Also, since you are near me, you
may want to come by and check out the setup before the car gets shipped to
Germany. You may save week of trial and error by spending an hour or so
checking this out - yes it took nearly a week just to get the fuel injection
figured out.
The car is an animal however - even with Quaife LSD installed, it burns
rubber in first and second and you are hitting 75 MPH by just after shifting
into 3'rd, and steering "fun"to control, though better I'm sure than without
LSD.

stuff(downpipe, intercooler, igloo, etc.) and was going to use the stock 4kq
airbox top flipped 180 degrees with the 5kt metering unit and igloo? Just
curious to why it doesn't fit.
