Aftermarket management is tricky too, as you can't run wasted spark it requires much more processing power. Emerald have prototypes atm, will probably be the best way to go.
As a stab in the dark, I'd look at getting a 740 flywheel machined to fit the T5, then using the 740TIC pressure plate and 360 middle like on a certain white turbo on here. Then bolt it together and see about sump clearance/engine mounts from there.

You can do either dizzy (fitment pending) or COP...MS can run spark for 5-pots just fine...you just need a phase sensor on one of the cams (which a T5 lump has). Emerald have prototypes? They're behind the game... 
I don't know exactly what 'that certain white 360' runs for a flywheel. I'm tempted to say it runs an early LH2.4 car's 60-2 flywheel, since it's such a common (i.e. easy to configure) pattern. That's what we're running on Ryan's car with MS. All you need to do is choose which pattern you want, and fit the matching flywheel. You could use the 360 one in principle, since it's the same as a 740 one apart from the timing marks.
The appeal of the standard flywheel is that you have the option of running factory management (more than enough to break everything behind the engine), plus readily available (if not cheap) strong clutches.

have you tried it on anything - ie for clutch operation , theres a guy with a T5 engined MK indy with a getrag , with a normal clutch he couldnt get the splines far enough in to the clutch driven plate with the adapter on , so had to go back to a dual mass flywheel .
anyway im interested , could be an easy way to get a 5 pot into my seven .
