Also, try as I may, I'm not spotting an intercooler on the ZHP..
I could be wrong, the ZHP may in fact be charged - but I just don't see it in those pics..
Have a look at the pic with both the bonnets open, look under the cover that normally goes over the intake plenum, you will notice a silver aluminium plate with two bolts in it, this is part of the ESS supercharger.
I recalled it from this pic from the ESS website:

Also it has the relocated aluminium powersteering fluid reservoir that comes with the ESS kits.
