Steering binding after turbo install

Mine rubbed going around left curves at decent speed, also aam install. Took it back and they shaved some off the shaft, problem disappeared. Do you have stock motor mounts, I still do and was wondering if that may have been contributing to my problem

Yes, I am pretty sure my motor mounts are still stock. I hear that some folks had similar problems with the earlier GTM TT kits; there is very little clearance on that side with the steering shaft; and it was binding up. That fix was to add a spacer somewhere to create more clearance.

It would not surprise me that more flex in stock mounts would add to the problem.
