    LOL with my old turbos we had to knock in the inner wing to allow the turbos to fit LOL

     

    10-15mm is more than enough for any movement bud :)

    stock mounts are the best option for TT'd zeds. with poly mounts, there is a possibility that they will melt. you could go for solid ally mounts but, the ride will become very shakey.

    you have plenty of room there. if you're still worried, use an engine brace...

    I had a look under Z1 Motorsports' 1400bhp (just upped the power again) vert and they've actually had to re-fabricate the chassis rails to fit the new turbos!

    Sweet....

     

    I have posters of that car which came with a order.

     

    Bet that is rather laggy!!

    not sure on the make of the damper/brace, got it from concept Z.

    my idea was to clear as much as possible off the plenum so it's easyer to remove and to hide all the fuel components behind the "fire wall" incase of any leaks
