wastegate getting in way of intake..help!!!!

[Clipse90Turbo]

Just installed a small 16g turbo. I also have a Greddy intake with 2g mas and filter. When I was trying to put the intake on the wastegate pipe was hitting the bottom of my intake and there was no way I could put the hose on the wastegate. I know a lot of people on here have upgraded turbos and intakes, so I'm sure someone has ran into this problem. What can I do? I was thinking about bending the wastegate pipe backa little and see if I can slip it on, but I'm worried about crimping the pipe. Can someone give me some advice?

Thanks

bend it, but be very carefull. use a very small wrench and start in close to the actuator and bend a small amount, then move it out some and bend again. repeat untill it is bent enough.

That's what I thought. thank you for your reply. I take it as that's the only option?

thanks

I ran into this putting a Evo III on a buddys car with a dejon toon hard intake pipe, and that was the quickest easieast way, i never even explored any other options

Thanks. And you didn't have any problems with the wastegate? This just makes me nervous doing this, but I think it is the only way. I could see any other answer other than bending that pipe.

Thanks
