Will R1 strut brace clear IC pipes?

I was wondering if anyone with an R1 has a greddy elbow and piping? I had to take my last strut bar off cuase it wouldnt' clear the pipes. saw a deal on one and thought I'd try that before i go buy a cusco.
Thanks
Kyle

Mine fits no problem on the Greddy elbow side.

However on the turbo side I bought it with it scratched and rubbed a bit.

I drilled a little half circle shape in the strut tower bar where the pipe is to give it more room so it won't poke a hole through the piping.

If its just the elbow then you should have no problems at all for any strut bar.
