issues installing T66

I have T66 Q trim and the HKS cast manifold.
on my fc. an the I cant get the turbo to fit it keeps hitting the frame rail. I though the housing was a tangenle exh but its looking like its on center.

does anyone else have problems with a T66 hitting the frame rails.?

i know that that housing on the HKS cast manifold will hit the frame rail on an FD. people usually just put a dent in the frame to get it in there....

There is a spacer that HKS makes for the manifold that will allow a T66....

I do not think that adapter is still made. I have pics of it, it is a cast elbow~15* with a T4 flange on either end. I plan to make this out of tubular material to fit my T66. I have never been able to find a part # on the HKS piece, they show up every once in a while on Jspec clips. It has to be short enough to clear the LIM as well.
