Yeah thats what i figured. I will be talking to the machine shop tomorrow and hopefully try to get the prices for the design down.

Fingers crossed that you're better at fitting bits into cars than you are at fitting photos into forums.

Just a couple more pictures to better show how it's going. Right now I'm trying to find a way to delete both outlets for the OEM oil cooler as it simplifies things a bit.

Ah very interesting, I'll keep an eye on this one.

yeah that lower hardline was in the way for me too. I ended up grinding a little off my compressor housing and putting a ding in that line. I say remove and fab a block off plate... then weld the top outlet shut.

I'm actually modifying my adapter to clear everything there so nobody has to grind anything which simplifies the install a bit.

I deleted my OEM cooler and the lines so i need to find the block off plate from the 09-11 cars! Does anybody know the part #?

Post it up if you figure it out. I deleted mine too and would like to delete this line as well in the future

I'm still waiting for the new design of the adapters to be machined by the shop. They are taking their time unfortunately which is what's stopping me.
I ordered the OEM block off plate for the oil cooler coolant lines and ordered AN lines that i will be cutting myself because it's pricey to buy them premade.

Also, i'm going to use the GTM/Gamma way of doing the coolant lines. Using Tee fittings that go between the passenger and driver heater hoses with a -6AN "Output" since it's the easiest way.

Will be updating with more pictures as soon as i get the new parts next week.

Got the GTR Heatshield today so hopefully I won't have any heat problems and also wrapped he manifolds with titanium wrap!

Also found a dyno sheet of these turbos running on low boost with gtr injectors

I'm pretty interested in it. Seems like a good way to go.

Very intrested in this hope it works out well I was thinking how difficult it would be to modify the exhaust manifold to bolt right up no adapters like cutting off the flat part of the manifold and replacing it with the flat part of the 370 headers obviously not that easy but since u have both parts in hand maybe you could hold them up to each other and see how difficult or simple it would be would save u the cost of making adapters and reduce the chance for failure of additional seals

If it was that simple I would be done already. The turbo needs to be spaced and mounted at an angle to clear everything.
The adapter is the easiest solution really..

Im thinking AAM intercooler with partial pipes could work the best.
