Hi all,

 

Has anyone fitted the Greg dupree 3" expansion down pipes???

 

The reason being is after alot of hassel taking the engine in and out to make way for the actuators and various other problems over the weekend :angry:

 

I finally got the engine in place to find that the steering wheel shaft rubs agaist the down pipe and bolt that connects the down pipe to the turbo.

Has anyone else had this problem?

 

Im hoping that once ive removed the heat wrap round the down pipe and fitted the gearbox and mount the engine will tilt futher forward and give me some clearence.

 

Id rather not take the engine out again and start modding the down pipe to fit as i know this has been done to simular downpipes.

 

Ive really had enough with this project its been one problem after another :angry:

 

Thanks

Dan

I'm running them and yes it had to be modified to fit round the steering column, cleared the bolts though.

let me know your email and I'll send some pics

Looks like engine out again :( can the gasket down pipe gasket be used again??

with gear box off, the engine tilts towards the fire wall, get a friend to pull on the engine while its in so its balanced on the engine mounts and then see if you have clearance.
