Bolt a twin turbo setup on your ride for $50?

Anyone in the Chicagoland area have a 3rd gen with their headers/manifolds off, or that would be willing to remove their headers/manifolds, that I could use to check fitment of a twin turbo setup? $50 for a few hours of supervised time in your engine compartment. Need to check fitment of my current dual scroll custom manifolds and take measurements to verify that new design will fit a third gen engine compartment.

If thats the exact setup I do not believe it will fit. The turbo on the driver side will probably hit the master cylinder.

I actualy have quite a bit of room. There may be an issue with the lines coming off of the master, but they can be easily moved, and for the purpose of a test fit, I would be willing to take the master off.

Re: Bolt a twin turbo setup on your ride for $50?

We'll find out. I wouldn't ask you to pull your master cylinder. We can just set the turbos on the manifolds and take a measurement on how much further forward they need to be. I don't plan on the setup fitting perfectly, I just need to know where the issues are and how much things need to move. I appreciate the input from you guys and definetly the engine compartment to use.
