greddy turbo kit question
Im piecing together a turbo kit and wanted to get some info. This is what i have
XS ENGINEERING TURBO KIT Consisting of
everything but the turbo.
So i bought a greddy turbo, manifold, and elbow. Now i bolted up the XS downpipe to the greddy elbow and it wont align right. So i took it out and put the xs elbow on and the downpipe but its not fitting right and looks like it wont clear the oil pan and bolt up to the exhaust. Its pointing towards the passanger side slightly and a bad angle. I am wondering since the greddy manfold is angled will the xs manifold work if its not angled exactly like the greddy one. Because if the XS will work then i don't need to get a new downpipe that will fit the greddy elbow and just use the XS parts I have. So my main question is, can i use a different manifold and still clear the block using the XS manifold and greddy turbo. This is he 18g. Here is a pic of the manifold and elbow.
thanks

The greddy DP goes with the greddy elbow. I'm not familiar with the XS stuff. You could also have somone fab up a DP for you from the turbo or greddy elbow.

Re: greddy turbo kit question (blaze the chemi)
do you know of anyone that does that? Make downpipes for the turbo. Im just wondering if the XS manifold with the greddy turbo will clear the block. If it will then the downpipe should work also.

What turbo flange does the XS manifold have? Does the turbo mate with the XS manifold? The greddy kit is a T25 or T28...can't remember which. So it smaller than the T3.
