it did not fit on my car 92 hatch. I had to get the elbow which puts the wastegate off to the side. It clears now with out a problem.

I asked the same question a few months ago and jackasses were calling me a newb. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=736556

The elbo sucks, it places the wg too close to the manifold to fab a dumbtube.

I ended up bashing in my hood frame to make it fit.

I will post some pics of my dumptube that PSI fabed for me. It looks so sweet and dumps right down by my tires. Not sure how you mounted the tube one way will put it right near your manifold the other way will put it off the end of your manifold near the timing belt cover.

i was told that the top nipple of the wastegate is supposed to be used for a electronic boost controller such as greddy profecb 2 like i have.... i havent been using it liek that. i have the deltagate and have been using the side nipple for my electronicd controller and it has been working fine is that wrong?
