Its just a bumper, who cares. Its sooo worth it for the performance you get. This kit literally comes with everything! You can't beat the price. I plan on running an aftermarket bumper in the future anyways. Good luck building your own.

It's a pretty good deal for what you get... sure cutting the crash guard is scary but hey... you have to pay to play

you can get a greddy kit (with fuel options) for cheaper... and you dont have to "pay" as much to play...

Not for an 07......

hahaha, that's the point of this thread... to find a way to make the greddy work on the 07's

So, has anyone else with this kit had the problem of the turbo touching the radiator fan like nd4spd did?
I really like the cast manifold and want it for my custom setup, but I kinda need the turbo to fit.

Please read the entire post, the problem was fixed by rotating and aligning the compressor housing outlet to fit properly, clearing up any fitment issues.

thanks

There is no mention in this post about any compressor housing.

In nd4spd 24page post, he said

That's when I stopped reading. After about page 7, I saw all the bashing, so I see why your getting an attitude. Don't.
I ain't bashing, just getting information.

Later on in the thread:

I'm assuming your saying all they needed to do was clock the turbo to make it fit and that all their radiator adjustments weren't neccessary?

I never had any fitment issues with the turbo hitting the fan. I know a couple other guys who have this set up and don't have this issue. Guess every car is different.
