Anybody try a j-pipe for mounting a turbo on a 16v n/a exhaust manifold on a 240?

I'm concerned about downpipe clearance between firewall and manifold.

And clearence between the manifold and crossmember for the turn in the j-pipe itself.

Is this concidered "too" hokey.
 
hokey is as hokey does

clearance is tight, but it works.

Doing it over again, I'd, do it the way Sam did and put the turbo farther forward at the same time. (ie. so you can use a larger turbo)

I also think going from 4-2- turbo is better than the 4-1 pipe. Can imagine it affects the pulses etc. A lot of people on savar run a J/U pipe. They use 4-2- turbo setups.
I've also used a 4-2- turbo configuration. Haven't tried it yet, will do within the next few weeks.
 
Ok cool, I'll try it then. Atleast until I make can make a nice manifold.

That last dual pipe one looks really nice.

that one is going on sam's 245 whenever he gets off his dead ass and starts putting it back together (or... maybe that's whenever rsi gets off their dead asses and lets him buy a cam)
