i have a 50mm wastegate and a xspower manifold. My problem is that the wastegate is to big and does not clear the cross memeber..anyone have this problem? can i cut the flange off the manifold and get it welded on about an inch or 2 inches higher on so the wastegate will sit higher up. if i do this will it mess up the direction and hit anything else? and also is there a kind of liquid gasket seal i can use for the waste gate my wastegate?
thanks!!!
thanks!!!

There are multiple manifolds, wastegates, and turbo set-ups with the SC. You gotta be more specific and say whether you parted this turbo kit together or you bought it from one source that *claims* its a direct bolt on.
This is why E-Bay parts are kinda bs but that my opinion thats all.
