Default truck mainfold set, do i have to remover nh sway bar?

Was going to buy the mod Turbo hot side kit until I saw you can't use a sway bar. Is true with all truck manifold front mount set ups? Can I make my own, stand up the radiator and keep my sway bar or is it a lost cause with the truck mani's?

you can keep if you design around it, most people ditch it for pure simplicity

I'm running a one. There is plenty of room to route around the sway bar.

You should be able to just mount the turbo high enough that the merge plumbing doesn't intersect with the swaybar.
