Installing rnr turbo back o2 elim exhaust

[soul]

I cannot get to the back bolt on the o2 housing to get my old one off!!! It's so tight of I spot I can't get anything on it. I don't want to drop the turbo again just for one bolt. Anyone had this problem? Also I'm kinda worried it's not going to be fun getting my oil filter off once I get this installed. Anyone had problems with that? I use the K&N filter with 1 inch connection. One more...With me having an external dump will my factory fan work? Just concerned ;(. I can't wait to get this exhaust on!!!! Just got to fix some on the welds on the o2 flanged...has a lot of flash left (what a dremel is for). Great quality product!

To get to the back bolt you have to use a 14mm swivel socket with a very long extension, then its gravy. I took the oil filter off before I put the downpipe on and removed the driver side fan also. To answer your other 2 questions, the oil filter will fit easily, and no you can not use the stock fan on 1G's, but I notice the 2G fan is much thinner, so that I'm not 100% sure on that one. Anything else feel free to IM me if you'd like.

I'll add my experience with the oil filter... Bosch and Valvoline will fit with the exhaust on. Purator Pure 1 will not. The others I have no tried yet.
