Default truck manifold?

i am getting ready to start getting gathering parts for a turbo build for my 99 ta. i have looked over a ton of build threads but i was wandering if there was a way to run the truck manifolds and keep the alternator in the stock location. the reason behind this is i already have a meziere electric water pump and the bmr alternation for the car and would like to keep that setup if possiable. i have searched just seems like relocating the alternatior is the only way without going to a set of custom headers

I believe you can if you cut the flange and weld on a vband.

Yes you can. You have to cut the flange off and weld a vband clamp so the manifold runs straight forward inse
