Has anyone tried modifying the metro turbo manifold (with a smaller turbo) so it clears the bulkhead?

I don't think it's possible. The flange is in the wrong place no-matter what angle you can mount the turbo at. Even with a tiny turbo Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I may be mistaken, but I’m sure I saw someone on here use an adaptor that was machined with an angle to put the turbo closer to the block. Whether it was enough or not I cannot remember. |

Now a days its much easier to by a fusion fabs kit |

Nope. Any turbo mounted on the Metro manifold will require bulkhead mods.
