Default BMC mani

I want to buy one from them but it looks like the turbo flange is positioned too much in an angle. What do you guys think? Also for those who have BMC mani's please post pics. (B series if possible)Im also interested in Shitbird's mani's but at the moment i'em short on funds.

PS- My main concern is being able to fit the turbo without having to go with a half size radiator on my rex.

Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks

I have one and the turbo is tight agains the block and the wastegate is about 1/4" from the radiator. But then again I had it made so that it would clear a/c. I ended up taking the a/c off cuz I couln't get it to work. Just tell him to weld the flange different. He makes the to order. Hes a good guy he just needs to get a tig welder.

I don't think BMC has a crx to test fit. He didn't when I ordered a manifold from him, the one he sent me put the turbo too far out, even with a half rad.
Don't get me wrong, the craftsmanship is awesome but he needs a crx to test fit, he only has a newer civic which has tons of room.

I'm running one, but it's in a 96 coupe, I have more room then you do. I love the manifold though.

Well I gave him all kinds of measurement to go off of and it came out just the way i wanted it to. The thing is if you mount the compressor on the passanger side it fits perfect but if you mount it the other way it will stick out really far. But no the mani looks great and is really clean.
