You prob best of drilling the 5 gtt mount to fit the f4r block as renault don't sell the gtx mount anymore.

Are you running the 172 engine in n/a form?? if so all you need to do is change the GTT pump for a slightly better pump say escort RS turbo bosch type you won't need an 044 it will be overkill, then just a case of bolting that in the same position as the GTT pump and job done:D

If you go turbo just fit an 044 pump or a Walbro 255 same place as above:agree:

From what I can see it looks like the bottom 2 parts in the pic are fuel filter and Fuel pump and a tiny fuel tank, and not to sure what the top one is might be some kind of pump to return overflowed fuel back to tank. To be honest waste of money, spend it elsewhere:agree: but it does look trick:D
