Looks like a standard T/B to me. Meaning probably the standard ECU or a motec is running the show. Unless its not running of course.

Interesting intercooler + cold-side setup! What the hell is in the guard?

I thought that was the motor that was in that thing. I was out at RDP last week and spied that corty through the fence but couldn't see the engine properly.
I've wanted to put a turbo 4l into a cortina for so long but I obviously don't have as much money as RDP.

Nah it looks like the intercooler hot & cold side are both on the driver's side, probably because the plumbing couldn't clear what I'm assuming is the ("sump"?) behind the passenger headlight?
