Have you guys test fitted one yet? I would confirm fitment before selling them as replacements. I am running GTX2863 on our HR motor with your manifolds and I had to modify the left side motor mount bracket pretty decently to get the front compressor housing to clear. I am however using T25 Plus vband exhaust housings, not the internally gated 5 bolts so it might change the location slightly.

Wait, I was just thinking, where are the cats going to be on this setup? Post-turbo and aftermarket? Is CARB known for approving kits with aftermarket cats?

Do you guys have specific's on what else has changed from your existing TT kit to the CARB legal kit that is in development other than the turbo being used?
For those of us who have your first TT kit, would swapping just the turbo make our kits CARB legal now? Basically, what else is needed to make the non CARB legal kits CARB legal? Very interested in this. |

After going back and forth with a Garrett engineer, he assured me that the external dimensions of the GTX2863R compressor housing isn't any different than the regular GT2860RS. Given that information, it would be pretty safe to say that it would fit, which is why I am asking about the clocking of the turbo on your project. Quote:
