I have a 90 240 with the sr20det and the stock turbo outlet pipe and this aftermarket one hits the steering shaft bad. Which one should I buy??

i cant see your pic but stock turbo outlet pipe even the Greddy style dump pipe shoul clear the steering column.

Only the divorced chamber ones like HKS ones will interfere with the steering column because they were designed for RHD cars. You just have to bang the crap out of the tube to get it to fit.

The flange to the downpipe hits the knuckle on the steering shaft. I have a picture on my cardomain site

The aftermarket one isn't a divorced one either. I don't get it. I haven't seen anyone else have this problem
