iamlegend Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 well what a fucking carry on today ripping the ct9 set up off the car to get the TDO4 set up on the go got the exhaust manifold on and i was thinking hmmm the external wastegate is extremely close to my auto gearbox tried to put it on and bang AND DOES NOT FIT the auto gearbox is in the way! so thats that foooked!! so now theres me with no car and the kit is not going to fit i wish bloody traders could give exact description of the products they sell sick of getting stuff what supposed to be "amazing" fit and it bloody well doesnt! not happy at all bout that but what can i do....VERY lucky my mate is in the uni automotive so he is going to cut the E/W flange on the manifold and turn it around so the external wastegate sits the other way but still ffs so now this will not be done till next weekend and i have work on monday Quote Link to post Share on other sites

iamlegend Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 Is the auto box much bigger than the manual then mate?Did you state when buying the kit that you had an auto?tbh i am not 100% sure about it been that much bigger than the manual box, if only the external wastegate flange was turned around 180degrees it would of worked but there was no way of it installing as was just wacking of the autobox Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StarletMad Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 To be fair The way your slagging it off it sounds like the whole kit you bought was shit :/I got mine and it fits fine and cant fault it... Well worth the moneyPerhaps you should have stated that its an auto when your ordered and perhaps he should have considered stating it may not fit an auto Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shorty Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Gonna stick up for legend here, the fact he drives auto is errelivant, he stated when odering its auto what more could he do, he is in the hands of the trader if they ok the fit your not going to question them. Tbh mate i feel you pain theres nothing worse than having a simple job fucked over by somthing out of your hands! If a kit is said to fit it should fit! Take it to an exhust specialist they will flip it round in ten mins cost fook all im sure its only mild steel is easy to chop and weld Quote Link to post Share on other sites
