The ebay turbo that came with my 4g63 dumped out. I have been looking for an MHI Evo 3 Turbo but they seem to be getting difficult to source. I have the supporting mods for an FP Green turbo already installed but am concerned with fitment of the turbo, specifically clearance between the (Stock) fan shroud and 1 g water pipe. Also am wondering about oil lines, are the factory 1g oil lines bolt up? Any guys currently running these? Any input would be appreciated.

No, they won't. Their description indicates that oil must be fed from the OFH, not the head as stock.

I know someone who ran a FP Green on their Colt and it fit on there alright. I'm pretty sure he had to trim the fan shroud. You can feed the turbo from the head using the stock lines, but I wouldn't recommend it, as you don't get nearly enough flow or pressure by doing it that way. The coolant lines will all bolt up like stock if it's a wet CHRA

Thanks for the input. It was the fan shroud & the water pipe I was worried about. I probably won't even run coolant lines anyway, since they were deleted on the old turbo.
