On the passenger side you got to remove the rad fluid reservoir and move it to the side and you will see 2-3 expose holes for the bracket.
I will take some detail pics tomorrow.

I had one for a while. It helps a little with initial torque. You can definitely feel more vibration in the car.

I think his passenger side turbo require space for his intake pipe and intercooler piping.
As for vibration, at first you will notice, but after a few engine start, you won't even realize the engine vibration.

My mistake you will have to pry the plastic piece behind the "power steering fluid" canister and move it to the side.
Sorry for the bad pic, but I've installed it 2months ago.
