OR
2.Purchase a T2 Flange and use it as a spacer between the turbo and the manifold.

Opinions Please.
Is it possible to clock the comp housing slightly to gain a little clearance?

Sidenote: its a pity they didn't develope the ex housing to suit the more compact Tial MVS gate.

yea, it should Clear i will take a pic of the mock up as soon as i get this turbo on the manifold. it was clocked a couple times and still wont clear enough because of runner #1. i will most likely go the extrude and swained route

Just tap the comp housing outlet a couple of times with a soft mallet or the wooden handle of a hammer in the direction you need - it will rotate into position - you don't need to undo the bolts each time.

Good luck
