i cut the bottom of the trunk off today .i left the part in front of the rear bumper as this wont interfere with anything .there is lots of room for the turbo and exhaust now .i am going to put a cross brace at the back of the trunk and then put sheet metal across to make a flat floor .the cross brace will be 'l' channel steel .this will give a place to hang exhaust brackets from.

BTW, the guys that make the Solstice headers are less than a half hours drive from me. I'm going to check them out this weekend if I get time. From the pictures, the headers ( and the Solstice exh manifolds for that matter ) look like they would dump out just above the differential if installed on a FWD or Fiero with Ecotec.

i made a cardboard template of the turbo's exhaust inlet and then put it up against the the ecotecs exhaust manifold outlet to see if they can be mated without an adapter plate,and the answer is yes.all i have to do is drill and tap 3 holes and the subaru turbo will bolt right on to the eco stock exhaust manifold ,thanks to the subaru's small three bolt inlet pattern.so the only adapter plate i will have to make will be for the exhaust outlet side .pics later today hopefully .
