Default Inline pro t3 manifold. clearance questions.

I have a this manifold and I have a garret t3/t4 and I am fitting it in the car the manifold sets the turbo on a weird angle, so I am figuring there is no way of fixing this prob, because if I put the downpipe in it sits against the rad and hits the fan shroud. I need some advice or some pics lol

this is on a b16 in a 92 civic stock rad and fan.

You could also flip the fan to the front side of the radiator possibly, so that it blows air in, and you'll have alot more room in front there. That's what I'll probably do....

Just be sure you cannot flip the stock fan. You have to use an aftermarket slim fan to make things work for you. One other thing, when you get the aftermarket slim fan make sure you flip the blades and not the current direction.

that manifold is made for an AC setup so the downpipe should be on the other side. as others said you may be able to clear with a slim fan, but the reason you are having clearance issues is because you have the turbo flipped the wrong direction
