thats sweet. but in the pictures it looks like the turbo is in the way of the strut tower bar in the picture.

is that how much you paid?

Trust me Cxracing is a good place. I ordered acouple of turbo stuff there for my miata and the quality is good and then fitment is good but not sure about ssautochrome.....I heard things about them..not good things. But i for one have never tried them cause the majorty of stuff I have heard is fitment issues.

holy crap thats tight on the bulkhead! i would like to see better pics of downpipe to firewall clearance.

ive bought a few things from cxracing in the past and have had no issue with them either.

No that isnt the price I paid! They sell on Ebay directly WAAAAY cheaper. This kit is specifically made for the USDM chassis/motor so clearance shouldnt be an issue. I wondered about the clearance of the strut tower bar myself. If you notice I have the tri-bar setup which "may" clear it, not sure yet.

Once I get the car back Im gonna start fitting stuff up and see how everything looks.

the intercooler seems pretty low as well. does that effect ride height?

just a fyi if you don't already know but you can NOT use the oil cooler drain back as the turbo oil return

why is this will? the oil drain i added to my 4a oilpan on my ae101 is in the exact same spot with the same size fitting? i had no issues.that is once i drained the oil down past that level. it turned out to be 3\4 a quart lower that the full line.
