CA18 guru's help me!!!!

i have a CA with the xspower ebay manifold and i have a t28 turbo....After trying to put on the factory oem turbo elbow, i discovered that it hit the bell housng and the corner of the block. i thought, well, maybe they sent me the wrong elbow for the car so i borrowed my friends oem elbow and its the same as mine! Do i need one for an SR or something??

It's probably the ebay manifold that's making it hit. Get a quality manifold?

Otherwise see if you can have a friend fab up a custom elbow or something.

most of the time when you get a EBay manifold you have to use the matching Ebay turbo outlet, we run into this all the time with SR's and i had the problem when i used one back in the day on my CA18.

if neither fit junk that manifold and go back to stock.

the xs power manifolds do actually change the position of the turbo. but you can still make it work. like someone else said, just use the matching xs parts and you'll be fine.

but it all else fails, i have a stock manifold for you. i have all the stainless xs parts if you are interested also

why waste the time? there is nothing wrong with the stock piece. i wish i wouldve stayed with it because nothing with it. you will just have to keep buying more and more shit. my turbo lines didnt \fit so i ended up buying new ones. just one thing after another.
