ive been searching for a while now and i havent gotten a real straight answer.I have an escort wagon and im about done with the kl03 swap.Id like to know if anybody is running the ebay/twm/mmi turbo pipes on thier escorts/mx3s? I want to know if the pipes will fit and if i have to modify anything as far as clearance on the shifter linkages,crossmember,or turbo location.I know almost all of the pipes on ebay locate the turbo where the battery/intake used to be but do the pipes fit the car ok or do i have to shorten anything or reweld or modify them to fit in the engine bay.I already know i have to shorten my exhaust, and modify my crossmember so any other info/pics will be helpful.Thanks

They fit.. all you have to do is mod the lower rear part which any muffler shop can easily do. The cross member is the only thing that needs mod. Everything else should bolt up.

so your saying the turbo/wastegate location does fit ok? and the modding i have to do is the crossmember and the existing exhaust on the car right?Thanks for the help
