Thread: Turbo Exhaust Routing

Can't believe it's been a year since I fitted a turbo! Anyway, no regrets at all.

At the time I did minimal changes to the exhaust. I left the original County exhaust running along the LHS sill and just made a new dump pipe. I planned to up-size the exhaust in the future.

So now I have ordered a LRA sill tank for water on the LHS (I already have a fuel sill tank on the RHS). But I need to re-route the exhaust for it to fit.

I know one of teh other forum members who has the exhaust going under the starter motor and between the chassis rails. I would like to do this but I have the winged sump pan and clearance looks tight.

What have others done to solve this? Should I be looking for a replacement pan? Or are there other options?

Re-route option (but not with winged sump??)

I have regretted routing mine over starter like above. (3")

is a bloody pain when doing clutch, clutch slave, starter or pretty much anything in that area.
If you do, try put a flange just above starter with captive bolts in a way that's easy to get at.
