Hey guys I searched and couldn't seem to get an answer so please bare with me. I bought an aftermarket factory location manifold, bolted up my factory 9 turbo. No issues so far. Well I purchased a MAperformance external o2 dump and it's running right into my ac compressor. No way to install it other than Removing my ac? I didn't read anywhere that I would need to remove it. Maybe I missed it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Quit messing around and Pull the damn turbo

 

I remember some early units had clearance issues. You can try cutting the dump tube where it is hitting.

 

Pull the turbo? I had the entire turbo and manifold off already that make no difference. Its not off a little. Its off a lot. Bolts to the exhaust side no problems whatsoever. Just runs directly into the AC compressor housing.

 

Interested in this . I was going to pick up a MAP 02housing. Did you try to give them a call?

 

Could be a combination of the manifold and o2 housing are both a little bit off causing the issue. I know it is additional work, but you could try the map o2 with the factory manifold and see what really is to blame.

 

i don't know how did that happened but i have stock 8 turbo and map o2 dump.all i had to do is to bend aluminum ac line like 1/4" toward radiator to make room for dump pipe.

 

Yeah i was thinking about trying the stock manifold and seeing if that was it. I am going to give Map a call today too. Ill keep ya updated Nomeiz.

 

Any updates?

I just bought a MAP o2 housing that was previously modified by the original owner because of AC clearance issues.
