exhaust leak cause by steering?

hey all i have a 93 coupe with an sr20 redtopwith megan racing manifold and turbo back 3" exhaust. It seems as if my steering (from where it comes through the fire wall)is hitting my downpipe , causing the turbo to pull away from the bottom of my manifold. Steering looks to be straight and downpipe looks straight too. Any ideas on what else could be causing this or how to solve my problem?

is it hitting the elbob, or the dp?

is the elbow stock, or the MR unit?

its on the dp and it is the megan racing unit
