BR turbo outlet pipe & Forge WG, will it work?

I have the EVO 9 green turbo with the BR install kit which includes there metal turbo oulet pipe. i just purchased the new Forge EVO 9 wastegate. Does anyone know if the Forge Wastegate will fit with the BR turbo outlet pipe in place. I mean it is tight with just the stock wastegate on. Thanks for the help.

Yea but the stock wastegate almost hits the turbo outlet pipe. I am concerned that the Forge may hit the pipe and not allow it to bolt up.

Bolt it up and see if it fits! Hook up some pressurized air to the actuator's nipple and make sure it can open all the way without hitting anything.

I'm pretty sure that the optional actuator that comes with the green is, in fact, the forge actuator.

I have the FPGreen with FP's HD actuator and the FP HD actuator for the Green is not a Forge actuator.

I got all 3 parts parts on my VIII, the 20GLT, the BR install kit, and the Forge WGA for the IX. It will work and fit perfect, .

I am not worried about the rod hitting anything but actually the base of the wastegate hitting the turbo outlet pipe and not allowing me to even mount the wastegate.
