how far back does the turbo sit in the bay? mine is a trust manifold and a t04z and 4" dump pipe fits only just with abit of a squeeze so your turbo must be mounted really far back towards the firewall? china manifold i presume?

i hear the 6boost manifolds are a good piece of gear and cheap as well for the quality u get and u know it will fit up without hassles.

i have one of those manifolds ow and its prob the worst one i have had i ordered an 1100 dollar one now i hope this bugger fits and turbo is sitting fairly far forward ..

you have a 6boost manifold? if it dont fit then tell them and im sure they would sort it out? i havent had any personal experience with 6boost but a few mates have them and they seem good quality.
