Quick 13b-re twins Q

I know the 13b-rew twin turbo setup won't clear the 13bt's lower intake manifold, but does the 13b-re turbo's clear without a spacer?

I searched and didn't really see anything helpfull.

I always see them forsale fairly cheap, and might even get one for free...

They are cheap for a reason.
They fail pretty regularly.
If you're running a stock ECU, you CANNOT get it to run very efficiently.
This means you need a stand-alone EMS, if you insist on doing this.

The Cosmo turbos outlet to the intercooler hits the hood.
Expect to cut your hood at a minimum for clearance.

Speaking of intercooler, you cannot run the stock TMIC.
This almost necessitates a FMIC.

Waste of time...
