RHD single turbo FD owners need a couple ideas.

Looking for current pictures of RHD single turbo set ups. Mainly looking for GT40 and above sized turbos. But also how much clearance you have between steering column, frame ,waste gate location, etc........

I am building one and need ideas.

I have a single turbo RHD. I will try to get a picture for you but I have a custom 3.5"down pipe and HKS GT wastegate dumping to atmosphere.

i somewhat recently installed a biiiiig oldschool shwitzer (borgwarner) on a friends RHD fd, we used a ebay stainless manifold that we slightly modded (the flange) only thing is the turbo is sitting maybe 1mm or 2mm close to the lower intake manifold, replaced the stock hardline for the heater core with a stainless braided one and cut a bit of the chassis near the strut tower and it fit just fine. a spare lhd single turbo downpipe fit on it as well



this is the only pic i can find of it at the moment tho.. its defenatly a work in progress still lol. but has ran fine with no issues on a stock motor for the last 3 months hes been daily driving it

my first setup. I used a ebay mani with a t61 0.96ar and worked great and had good clearance.

now running a costum mani high mount. s366.

but the ebay mani works fine, also a friend has a cast hks mani with a ebay gt45 1.00ar also works.
