I had the same problem with FPWHITE and 18psi actuator rubbing my ralliart 2inch outlet pipe.

I just made some adjustments to the plate (bending it a little) so that there is slight clearance. It seems that it was not necessary to do so, but I didn't want any noise to be detected as false knock. Moreover I don't like the fact that there *may* not be free movement of the actuator. Guess I am a bit nitpick.

I just tried to test fit my RED and install kit from Buschur and I couldn't even line up the "J" pipe to the turbo for the two bolts to go in. The actuator is definitely in the way.

When you adjusted the actuator did it have any issue with play at all.

Boris, please post some info on your setup when you got completed? It would be great to see another VIII with almost the same mods on the RED.
