Gotcha that would be sweet. The only reason I angle out the way was because of t housing. But now that you guys found me some other options for that.kind of kicking my self in the *** for that.

I really don't feel like moving the turbo now that is mount. But my spot gives me some more DP space or that's what I keep telling my self lol I'll look at switching it and see what I like

Thanks bro

Awesome job with a computer by the way

Whats the problem tom? Is the DP not fitting or are you just "very tight" in that area? It looks like Kyle was able to make it end up fitting, so id use those pics as much as possible for your bends and turns. Or is there something that I'm missing here?
