VRSF DP issue

FATBMW · 05-19-2012, 09:53 PM

So I had my roommate install my VRSF DP's today. He is a service tech for VW and has also worked for Audi, so I have faith in his skills to do a simple job like this. Well, he told me one of the DP's went on smoothly, but the other was an absolute pain to fit, and after he got it in, it now rubs on one of the transmission bolts

Has anyone else had this issue, and if so what was the fix? FYI, I left the DP's on (roommate is going to try to fix them monday), and they are incredible, minus the rattle from the tranny bolt. Definitely a change in exhaust tone and power!

You(he'll) have to clock the DP on the turbo so that it clears everything. Use a folded piece of paper to check clearances.
