struggling with 14b turbo
 
the compressor housing is giving me a hard time. with the location and since i have power steering and would like to keep it i dunno what to do. any ideas... for the main intercooler pipe, coming off the turbo.

Get the weld flange from RRE and do a custom one. That thing is a bitch.

i would say order the flange for it and just weld the piping to your specific needs..

it's funny you guys say that. because i have that flange! I dont have a welder, so between my garage and my friends the angle got mixed up and screwed me last month when i tried to put it together. im thinking the best way to do it would be to weld a short piece of pipe that clears the exhasut manifold and power steering pump. then use some form of radiator hose to get it in front of the radiator or around it somehow...sound like a plan?

Looka again. I'm pretty sure that pic was taken from underneath of the car. See the manifold "under" the turbo? Unless he put the manifold on upside down...
