Got a problem the mechanic says they will not fit they are UK spec turbos on a 1993 jap car all the stud pattern is different any ideas as i want her on the road and the manic bill is rising.

 

As said if you want to fit UK turbos on a J-spec car you will also need to fit the UK manifold, down pipe and decat pipe.

You need UK Manifold. UK Turbos. UK Exhaust Gas Bypass Valve and a UK Downpipe.

 

Without all 4 things it WILL not go together as you rightly say the stud patterns don't match. Without having these parts you'll go no further.

 

If the items you have were sold as UK spec and don't fit...then you've been miss-sold.

bob has told me i need a simply fit a £15 restrictor ring in the exhaust as well for the the decat

 

nice to know that people are helpful thanks bob your a star i'm just having a bad day

 

You won't need a restrictor ring with the UK turbos, restrictor is only needed with J-spec turbos due to smaller wastegate.

Bits were posted out by Chris Wilson today mate, should be with you tomorrow. He's also included the necessary servo to make it work properly and the necessary elbow-type thing which I wasn't sure was included. Should be everything now :)
