Chris, can you please confirm if you can supply fittings so that the Spec C rails can be used with my standard fuel lines? Or if not can you please email me some pics of the unions you supply so that I can source some.

Frayz, it will be interesting to see if you have any fitment issue with these. Every rail I've seen so far fouls the intake pipe for rotated turbo set up.

The only way to fit them means having a large obstruction on the inlet samco where its pushed in by the 90 deg -6 fuel elbow. The other issue is that because its touching its eventually wearing through and any bits of silcon pipe that break off end up being dragged through the turbo.

Let me know if they don't foul as that will solve a fairly big problem for us rotated chaps

Sorry Arch I should have been clearer, I was refering to the Newage manifold with top feed Injectors and rails to suit.

Daz - Would the Spec C intlet (your old one ) and rail allow a little more clearance?

Looking at the TGV housing next to the Spec C inlet, it looks like the injector entry is much lower. There for the rail should sit lower and allow for the inlet pipe to clear over the top??

I wont be fitting the rotated set-up till probably next year as I plan to run the engine in on an oe location turbo but after I get some miles on her and get used to the car again I will pull that off through the winter and plan to run a rotated GT30R but still want to ensure the rail is not touching. How about a hard inlet pipe - or is it touching at the silicone joiner right at the turbo inlet?

Daz this is one of my main gripes with aftermarket rails.

Getting them as sleek as possible for the rotated guys is my primary aim. If we can get them fiting well like that then on a stock lacation setup there will be room in abundance.

For the record, the protos that i made initailly dont touch the inlet pipe

Default New spec c design

Guys,

This is our new revised Spec c design. After actually going to see Frayz a few weeks back and seeing how bloody tight everything is down there once the turbo is in postion .... I think these will do the job very nicely

We're trying to create as much clearance as possible for rotated setups. Something almost all previous designs have struggled with.
