Has anyone ever bought one, and installed it!?

Just wanted to check it works ok on a RHD car

Prof

Can\'t say for the FD, but I have one installed on an FC - and it extends the OMP out by about an inch sideways from the front housing which meant it fouled the turbo oil drain pipe and also it\'s very tight on the lower water hose.  I think the FD one is physically smaller - so you may not see these issues - but he has some helpful notes on his site - or he used to at any rate.

Ok thanks...I tried emailing them, they said they had no experience with RHD cars

This is what the Rotary aviation adaptor looks like on the FC OMP - you can see clearances are tight with it ;)

Cool thanks for that, well think I will order it, and let someone else fit it! :)

I\'d be interested to know how you get on with this as I\'m also thinking of fitting one when I get my rebuild done. Seems like the best of both worlds to me - nice synthetic oil for your turbos and 2 stroke for the rotors :)
