WOW! I thaught no one was interested, then bam! Well Im glad for the mixed discussion. In my case, the turbo would not fit without at least a half inch dent in the pipe.(The spacer plate is .500") It may not affect the cooling system at all. But on the same token, if that is true, then a stock intake on a turbo with a 3" inlet makes no difference.
Think about it. More importantly though, there is another issue that I did not address. On of the water pipes uses a banjo bolt that goes into the head and sits directly in back of the comp housing. With the spacer plate I did not have to touch that water pipe(And re-route the water lines in the process) The turbo went in just as easy as a T-25. Im just not one for crushing the water pipe. I have found my sollution, and I think others will benefit from my post. And then again others will keep posting nonsence, and make themselves look more and more like a.... Well, you guys get the idea. Im not a "Wiseman", but please, feel free to PM with with tech questions. Im here to help.
