Yeah, those inline pro manifold angle too much in my opinion. I would angle the piping so you get a better fit. I turned the turbo around and clocked the housing on one but the turbo would hit the rad. fan too and we had to get a thinner one. If you don't have a/c turn it around. you will be able to get a lot better dp made for it. late
