Jwick’s car probably didn’t come with “Frank” in the kit.

nope, v1 and I believe that kit had it routed on the passenger side!

jwick

Actually I’m running V1.5. It has the same piping route as you but the old manifold so not as many turbo options. I originally had the V1 kit but bought the upgrade for the charging piping to route thru the driver side. Installing that B1 kit having to tightened the tee clamp on the turbo thru a tiny hole in the passenger side wheel sucked major monkeygoatcock!!!

I thought I had remembered reading you had it routed on passenger side and it was terrible.
Now that I am starting to tighten clamps, things are wanting to be in the way of the CMAK fork. maybe grind a 45* on cmak fork end. might have to have a custom short pipe made and attach to some custom couplers. lots of options to skin a cat.

jwick

Yup. I started that way. You can ask Chuck, the install sucked. Getting the turbo clocked and onto that coupler with the tee bolt clamp and everything aligned properly made you want to eat a bullet. Then you had to tighten the clamp thru a window that allowed one click of a ratcheting box wrench at a time. I’m not exaggerating when I say I spent over an hour tightening that clamp. ‘Supposedly’ you are able to get a deep socket 10mm in there but we never got it to work that way.

The CMAK fork must be for the CSC delete?

Yeah, for the csc delete kit. The fork comes out of the housing and mounts next to the square inspection hole.
you can see the fork coming out of the bellhousing and the slave mounted. The lines drawn with sharpie is the range of movement on the fork.

jwick

Nice that you’ve got it on a lift so you can **** with it until you’re happy with it. I still don’t think that would fit with my kit.
