Default Strut bar for 1/2" spacer with F/I???

Anyone know what strut tower bar goes in front of the plenum and clears a turbo intake on the TN kit???? I have a craford and it hits the plumbing and does not bolt down.

Am I forced to drive without a strut bar?

We are in the same boat as I have the TN kit as well. I bought the crawford strut bar but it hits the turbo plumbing. Does anyone know if there is another strut bar that clears the front of the plenum and arced for a TN kit?

if you have a 1/2" inch spacer and you put a strut bar over it, the bar is going to rub against the hood.

I think the only solution would be to install those SVRT solid engine mounts that lower the engine by 1/4 inch cause i have 1/2in MD spacer as well and Cusco bar on top of it.

Or just remove the strut bar. But there should be another strut bar that is alot smaller. Anyone have any ideas? I think there is one called JIC or something. Not sure.
