my greddy couplers have all turned black, and to make it fit by the brake reservoir we had to hammer the pipe in, got pics of what you've done so far?

i have an old school greddy kit, and i mounted a tial 50mm BOV right by the TB. i know i had a little clearance issue with my Mazda Trix strut bar/motor brace set up. i just used a hammer to massage it a lil for clearance. i dont hear andy turbo flutter from have my BOV so close to the TB either....

do you guys think it would be better to cut the bar and try to make it fit and reweld it...or should i cut the pipe to make it fit?

Depends on the interference. Can you take a picture? I bet it's easier to cut the bar though...

i could take a picture but id have to have somene else try to post it on here i dunno how to do all that stuff...i was thinking i will be better off cutting the bar .. i dont know if you have ever seen the mazda trix bar but the one that hits is firewall brace bar on the drivers side the pipe is about right in the middle of where the bar is suposed to go so its gonna be a pain to make it work..i will try to get those pics up but it may take a few days
