I have a 2g Magnus manifold for my 99 GSX. I have the stock 2g tb elbow and a redtop Optima battery. As it is, it's not gonna work with either that battery OR the 2g tb elbow. I'm not getting rid of the Optima. I have about 3.75" between the tb(where the elbow mounts to), and the battery, to work with. I mocked it all up at lunch and the tb elbow cannot point over to the passenger side whatsoever like the stock one does. I almost need a 90* that points straight to the front of the car. You also wouldn't be able to take the whole course of the 90 degrees either. You'd have to cut about 1/2 way into the 90* part to stay within the 3.75" spec. Does anyone know where i can get an elbow this tight? RRE has one but is nowhere near this tight. I could maybe fab one up but i don't have any flanges.

Any help would be appreciated. I'd hate to have to relocate the battery.
