Id put a dent in it, and shave back the turbo a little for more clearance, and put something between the two like, heaqt wrap or some type of silicon. justso if it does continue to touch or rub or randomly hit each other, it wont damage it next time.
And that rubber 0 ring.. Is a B* to get.. mitsu told me they couldnt get it (But ti think the guy was an idiot) and autozone didnt have anything big enough.. just try not to Rip it when u put it back in. lube it up with something before u slide it back it.. I ripped mine when i reassmbled my built motor, was a pain.

^^ lol.. i just use silicon, it will stop it for a little bit.. LOL i had a HUGE glob on my radiator for like a year without many issues, if it leaked i slabbed on a bunch more.. and yes that radiator is now gone with the wind, i bought a new one, but never installed it untill i got the new setup.. lol but dont do what i said for a DD car, will more then likely cause u to be stranded at the wrong time.

Yeah ill be super careful, hahah these factory radiators are such POS! This is my second one! But the one i got now was only 100 bucks from 1-800 radiator and its got a lifetime warrenty so im set there. Is there any way i can leave my headers and turbo on the car, take of the thermo housing and take off the pipe that way?
Ill have to look at it and see, but wondering for those of you who have installed this part before what your approach was on it, It would save so much time! I need to get this thing done asap its getting much worse!
