Default How Can I Make This FIT!!

Got my manifold in tuesday, started installing everything and ran into this.

Already removed the front motor mount How is the 3" downpipe going to fit!? does anyone have pictures of the full race h22 manifold so i can get an idea, the pics in the thread are down.






w/o front motor mount

fit the 3" pipe through the largest opening. looks like you gonna need some real tight radius bends and prob route the DP about 120 degrees to go towards the opening and that should be cool.

Get a slim fan and make a side exit exhaust.

that would work if the turbo wasnt damn near sitting on the cross member.

I think it could be done, like stated above all you will need is a couple of 3" exhaust donuts and or some tight radious bends.

Btw why do I see a 35mm wg flange on that manifold with a T4 turbo on it, besides that how are you gona fit a wastegate there considering your still running a full radiator core??

dont even think that will work, it'd have to be something really crazy and he'd have to remove the front motor mount which is a no no

Crossmembers are for pussies, , I'd start shaving it down until you can fit some tight turns in there.

the lower lip alone will not work, he'd have to cut into the block (not just the webbing part, but the actual block) and thats with no front motor mount, look at the pictures above

exactly, you need a 92-95 civic radiator, and looks like you will have to run the down pipe forward of the crossmember

That, or get the sawzall out so you can use the downpipe that was made with the manifold.
Weld some sheetmetal in wherever you cut to add some strength back in.
Sorry for any confusion, the new site mentions this too btw.
