Tubular manifold and 46mm wastegate

[JeviP]

So I just received my tubular manifold with the 46mm wastegate. I know the manifold sucks but mine had a crack. So anyways, from the looks of it, seems like I'm not going to have any room for the wastegate. Seems like the ps pump is in the way. Has anyone had this setup before? Does it fit?

Who made the manifold? The design is going to vary depending on the source

I think it's t3

Well what I mean one person is going to make one different from the next, they aren't all designed the same bend wise. What might work in one engine bay with one set up might not work in another. Was it custom made or made by a known manufacturer?

I think the guy I got ii from said he got it from eBay. But he said it should fit in my car. The ad eBay said it fits too. But I wanna know if anyone has had this set up before. Where they had a 46mm wastegate on the side of the manifold. Does it fit with the p/s there or am I going to have to remove p/s for good?

I have a t3 manifold from an ebay seller similar to what you have. In the end I ended up getting another type. With those type of manifolds to work you will have to modify the wastegate side by cutting it and welding it in a different position so you can keep your power steering. My suggestion is to return the manifold to the seller for a refund and buy one used on the classified ads here.

You give us nothing to work with will for the love of god. No pictures or even a brand. What do you want us to tell you?
