Sup Ya'll
Hopeing you guys might be able to help me out....I'm looking for a eather a fab shop or anybody who has the resorces to help me out here.
I had a custom turbo manifold made for the car, it was made from the best fitment specs i could provide at the time, well it showed up and low-n-behold it doesnt clear the water feed for the pump on the back of the block.
the manifold is made from sever small pices that were put togather due to the vary small amount of room i have to work with...i looks like a normal schedule 40 pipe or what ever is commly used in a application like this, however the only spot that it can be exstened at the pipe has been "flattened out" so its more oval to match the exhasut ports off the head.
any recomendations would be a HUGE help.
thanks.

I'm in the auburn hills area, but i'll drive just about any wear to get this fixed....
as for vehicle(i dident mention because i dident want to get flamed) its a 2005 Chevy Cobalt ss.....i know its just a 4cyl and most people on here are V8's but in my small displacement defense i have made a touch over 300whp(for only 1998cc that aint bad) and driven the car into the 12's
I sent a PM to diamond a while back(saw there BIG white truck out on french) but never got a reply, and now i'm in some serious trouble so i'm hoping to hear from them.

is he capable of doing this(its not that complicated, at least it doesn LOOK like it will be) its more the material and its odd shape that makes me wonder
i have so little room that the 3in extension would have to be in this oval shape
