hey does anyone have pics of how close thier turbo sits to the frame. ive been looking for pics but i dont see any. i wanna do a comparison of where mine sits and where others sit. Thanks! another question actually... lol Does your turbo ever hit the frame?

Which turbo are you running?

There is a solid inch of clearance IIRC. The motor would have to move quite a bit for there to be contact.

Bad motor mount? ...if your turbo recently starting making contact?

I have prs2k's old turbo setup on my car. it looks about the same as far as fitment. I have had a rattling sound/ grinding from that area but am still unsure as to what it is. It may be hitting the frame rail under acceleration and left turns. I guess that answers why I have noises at those times lol. The inertia may be pulling the motor and everything into the fram rail. I may have to cut some more frame.
