Shaving the knuckle, following the install instructions for the APS extreme kit and you will be fine..

How does shimming a motor mount (which is what I assume they are talking about) change anything as far as the "Motor to tranny". They are solidly bolted together. It would change the angle of the transmission to driveshaft of course.

Idealy, you want every component from the crank shaft to tranny to rear end on a level plane..Im sure someone will debate my explenation with some long winded cut and paste on something they read somewhere..But this is basic stuff, I may not be doing a good job explaining it..But most people understand what I am reffering to, as far as keeping the engine and transmission as true as possible since it is a rotating mass.
Either way, we can mod the steering knuckle on the 06's in order to make it fit without shimming.

With a universal joint in that location, and the constant flexing of the chassis, it is unlikely you will harm the driveshaft, or the output shaft.

And either way, we havent shimmed an APS TT kit 06 engine, merely pointing out that it can be done.

Kits that will fit include
TT - JWT, Greddy, and APS(with minor modification)
ST - APS, TN - both require modifications
Superchargers - Vortech and Stillen I believe
Your best bet would be a TT or supercharger kit. I would avoid the ST's for now...

Your saying JWT and Greddy will fit with no modification on ANY parts?
