Hi, i have a gt17 turbo and a mirage manifold. The gt17 is water and oil cooled and it wont really fit without any mods to the bulkhead. Is there a smaller turbo or version of the gt17 that should fit?

Gt17 does fit without bulkhead mods. You must have the wrong manifold. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I have this and it fits. As suggested what engine steady are you using, an adjustable would allow you to angle engine slightly plus what subframe. I've a late subframe and engine mounts are approx 10mm further forward. As an afterthought, you have got the std Matty manifold and not the performance one with longer tracts? |
