i belive the pwr is setup for standard fitment, although it is slightly thinner then the stock item. i am pretty sure the stock fan is still used.

yeh, standard fitment. They made just a couple of small changes to the original design to simply it. It's also thinner. Not use what u mean by "as i need the for intercooler an turbo manifold" but it will retain the fan u are talking about (shown in ur pics) and will clear manifold no problem - u will have slightly more room if anything.

mind you, slightly more room isnt enough for any turbo other then the stock or vxr :(.
i have about 10mm between my turbo and the radiator, and about the same on the motor side.

its the Fan in the engine bay the one with the alloy cover
I am fitting a Dbilas turbo manifold with hybrid vxr turbo
its the new manifold has made me move the Rad's forward a bit so i just wanted to make sure i still have room for Fan in engine bay an Fan on intercooler

advantage of bein from the Uk though is if u want a different setup, guys like Nortech and regal make tubular manifolds for pretty much standard fitment - i know nortech have just designed a new tubular manifold and retains the fan dannysport18 is referring to - thats even with an external wastegate!:)

i have a VXR turbo....

that fan is retained and u should have no issues with dbilas manifold and vrx turbo

it should fit as it is a thinner design, but if you have any concerns, call or email PWR and they'll help u out. Ask for Drew.
