Here's an example.....daves bike sporting a gt30

If thats a 120/70 you will have alot more room with the tire im running..

[nem1300]

Notice how much front end is lowered even with a17" wheel there's tons of clearance.

If thats a 120/70 you will have alot more room with the tire im running..

Yup....missed that

If your running a 70 series 4x4 tire up front yank it....lol

Shortest 17" I found when running a17" was the pilot pure 120/60/17.....and I've tried a few.

My friend works for Lingenfelter, he is coming over tonight to look at the problem and will most likely cut up and modify the header so the turbo sits in the right pocket as pictured above.

Nem how is the oil return set up on that bike? Is he using a scavange pump or just straight into the pan?

[nem1300]

I'm guessing scavenge

[B-RACER]

NEM..THE PURE IS SHORTER THAN THE PIRELLI FOR SURE?

mine has a groove in it from hitting the housing..

[E39_GixxerThou]

buddy came and looked at it, would need to redo the whole system. dont wanna do that. think I might say **** it and go nitrous.

[B-RACER]

try lower tire or 16" rim if you have to..your to deep into it to give up over that!!

[E39_GixxerThou]

I talked to Rich @ RCC to return & refund for my header, he wont do it. We talked about my turbo and his header was made for a GT2560 and my turbo is a GT2860, so a buddy of mine has a smaller turbo that im going to try and see what happens. Rich said the GT2860 will have clearence problems regardless how i mount it. Im not going to give up, it will spool one day or another!

just put a 16 on the front of it call it a day, You wont have problems then. If you keep looking for other ways to come around mock this up mock that up you going to have way more into then you would just changing the front end.. just my opinion

[B-RACER]

J........

[E39_GixxerThou]

The MT75? I really dont want to convert to a 16" wheel tho!

[B-RACER]

Yup thats mt-75..i have grind my housing more..i did when the forks werent cut now its hitting it in a lower spot..some say the pilot pure is smaller,,i would like to know also,,..

[B-RACER]
