While I agree that GTM makes an extremely good kit, there were some fitment issues with this particular kit. I appreciate the breakdown on how to install the wastegate piping. Regardless, after attempting the same procedure that you outlined, the fitment on the lower pipe was off by nearly 1/4 inch. I am always very patient with my installs and have taken the time to do things right by both the customer and the manufacturer of the kit. To this point in time I have had very few complaints on my methods of working. I can assure you that the issues that have come up with my customers have been resolved to their satisfaction and they can attest to that.
