Hey Britt

I have an RB26 with custom header, my problem is steering shaft(knuckle) part keeps hitting the steering when hitting tight turns, my turbo also sits really close my head. I also have a 4" down pipe, so things are really tight in that area. Where is this shop located, website etc. I am new to this site, been underground for a while, so to speak.

Lovefab.com, the shop is by Traverse City in Michigan. The manifold is going to work with the 26 also. The body kit is origin lab/stylish, the fenders and hood are masa motorsports.

you might wanna contact McKinney Motor sports.
http://www.mckinneymotorsports.com/ they are really good people to work with. They might help you.

But my input is a 4" DP is really huge. that might be the reason... Why did u go 4'? why not 3.5" or just 3"?

Exhaust side of turbo in 4" just seems backwards to choke it down. Not too worried about that but I would like the turbo a few inches further away from the head.

You ever get scared of anything going into that turbine? That snail is huge!! (Well, compared to the ones I used to mess around with, haha!)

Nice setup though. Wowzas.

How well is that 4" inch exhaust fitting up. Does it hang really low causing it to scrap??When I do my 1jz swap im debating between 2 turbos. One with a 3" exit and the other with a 4" exit. Im really wanting the turbo with 4" exit and 3.0 compressor outlet . If I get that turbo then I have to run a 4" exhaust.
