Removable fender liners? 140-160

=D Yeah, I know it'd be hard, it'd just be cool though. But, I guess the b30 and tranny have another home to go to so they aren't being neglected, and that'll be pretty tight. As far as the inner fenders go, if they're like the 140, they are not. They're part of the body of the car and just extend out from the firewall. If you were to take them out, it wouldn't really make it much lighter(every bit counts though, i'm anal about that too) either. It is used to support the whole front end of the car as far as I know as well, like the radiator, the fenders and the center piece. If you want, you can cut out the area that you need to make room for the turbo, just make sure it doesn't interfere with the suspension or wheel travel. Look up Jiminy14(or something like that) on Turbobricks that has turboed a b20 in his 1800. Those have MUCH less engine compartment space... Peace!
