Ill go get the turbo, and write it down what it is, and try find out more about it.

If that's that's the case you may aswel have him make a 2.5" system for you?

He has asked me if I want that made up too as he's doing my rollcage from scratch aswell, so really I could just copy the design of the downpipe and sell it after as I'm unsure of the size of the downpipe they give you.
I'm only hoping for around the same as my stage 2 cupra (225 bhp or so) hopefully this turbo can produce that.

Also eventually found out what turbo it is, its a TB2555 used on rover 16v turbos and saabs
Would anyone know where I can get a spec sheet for this??

the only turbos that fit the cituning manifold and have clearance for the box/cps are the saab style one with the usual 4 bolts manifold flange and 3 bolt downpipe flange can get GT17s, T25s and TD04s from saab 9000, 9-3, 9-5 and the veigenn (sp) special editions.
Any other turbos will need modifying in some way

Hmm, did hear about this somewhere, is there not a way you could space the manifold from the head a bit further to clear it?

whats the point of that? would require an adapter making tbh wouldn't give enough space as the space is limited as it is only way around it is to cut the flange off and reweld it to suit clearance but then you will need to rotate housing so they clear.
Not being an arse but by the time you have made an adapter or cut stuff up the money spent would of easily got a turbo that would fit

I was actually trying to get my head around which way it would have to face before but it's been a long time since ivehad a cituning Manu infront of me
The 3bolt housing turbos are a lot more compact in design then the 5 bolt, so may be worth trying to mate things up before you do any fab work, my 5 bolt turbo takes up a lot of space in the bay
But the cituning stuff sits off to the right alot more

Bought a cituning mani and dp + gt17 turbo, so its all sorted now to get rolling 
Would anyone know what sort of clearance ill have oil filter wise?? Could I use a mocal oil cooler with a ATSPEED 50mm filter and not foul the dp? Or do I have to get the relocation?
Also spooxs oil feed + t piece for oil preasure sensor , thinking of getting that.. Any views on it???

I don't know what the clearance is like on the cituning stuff but for anything oil cooler/system related I'd go to Think Automotive incredibly helpful and knowledgable and will sort you out.
As for small filters, alot of people iirc use little ones from a Renault 5gtt, should be easy enough to pick up for cheaps

That's all the at speed ones are. Alternatively fit a relocation kit which gives even more room and allows you to run any size filter you want, inc full size, as you mount where you've got space.

Just starting on my conversion, im looking at what to use/how to do the water feed and return lines into the coolant system. Do I need to get some t piece fittings.
Where is the best place to have the feed and return going to?

you get a good few inches with the cituning setup on a normal oil filter, i ran a relocation kit on mine and had loads of room to play with and would defo recommend using one
