Maybe you had some older T3 manifolds. I had the 1st revision that was on Jeremy's Stealth before he went single turbo. Yeah with the 3076Rs it needed trimmed. Both did. I got the 2nd revision kit and DR-900s fit without modification. PTE 5857s fit without modifying the brackets also. I can see if you didn't do a low enough profile on the oil drains the brackets would interfere. As far as the compressor cover I never had issues.

Ahh, i didnt know that was part of his revisions. Good to know.

Yeah there's 2 revisions I'm aware of. The originals which he sold 5 of. The quality and welds weren't the best. I know either Jeremy or Rob had them welded up from cracking plus the position in relation to everything else wasn't as nice as it is now. He revised them and sold them with the grey ceramic coating for a few years which is what I had/am selling. Then he had too many complain about everything not bolting together because they would tighten the bolts as they put something on instead of waiting until towards the end. So to help with that he put a flex section in the 02 housing. It wasn't needed. He also switched to a near chrome ceramic coating. That's as much as I know.

Put my stock rear exhaust mani back on and put the new rear turbo in only to find out that my rear coolant line dont fit anymore. waiting for an adapter.

I wonder what everybody else that got these are gonna do . its not an easy feat to grind that rear mount down.

Hey Mark, does it hit the mounting point that is on the car itself or the mount connected to the engine?

Would having maximal solids make a difference?

I have maximal solids, its the mount to the engine.

Hmm. Guess I will have to cut some mount away.

Next problem the rear hole stud nut combo on the front header dont work. To close to pipe. Solution i put in a rounded bolt with a hex top. Thats the only way to fasten it
Unless yur engine is out or unless u know a way to put in your header bolted to the turbo in all at once which i didn't see.
Fyi
