I recently picked up a big turbo and I am wondering If I am going to run into problems trying to fit it in between the manifold and the front crossmember. Im thinking if I clock the turbos comressr/turbine housings (which stick down the most) I might be able to sqeeze it any Ideas??

 

Well, Go over to http://www.g2ic.com

Its the "Master" Site for the 2nd gen integra's


Almost all cut and chop away at the front cross member when it comes to installing a downpipe.

All though... There are a few who have beeen able to not touch the front crossmember,

It just makes it more easy to cut and chop away at it.
Here is a link to someon at g2ic who has fit a 3Inch DP without touching the cross member

u might have to cut out some of the crossmember. which sucks. how big is ur damn turbo? is it an f'n john deer tractor turbo or something? u shouldn't have to cut the member to 'FIT THE TURBO' in. maybe to fit the down pipe, but not to fit the turbo. post pics or something to clarify wtf it is ur trying to do here.

 

I had to cut a little bit... not a hell of a lot though

 

i have one , why don't you buy a custom cross member from me .. pm .. for more info

 

nah if I can clear it with a 2.5 im going to try, I hardly got anycash left and i need tires and Tuning.... If i need to sawzall it it may have to be done....

 

custom crossmember i would like to see it im in the market for a new crossmember not a traction bar just a smaller crossmember.Send pics to mesa6424@bellsouth.net if you could.Thanks

 

I had to cut mine in order for my downpipe to clear but i dont see a problem with any turbo clearance.

 

what did u use to cut it and if u have anypics would you be able to post them Im kinda in a bad position since i bought this crappy downpipe, and it needds to be all welded together b4 installation and im not sure how i could size it upwith it in pieces and the thing not bent/cut
