Fabbing lsx transplant procharger intake piping: F2/A2W/Super Vic
I'm at a crossroad at the moment. Can't decide what will be easier to do for the intake piping. See pics with different volute discharge directions....Gonna use 4" aluminum. What are yall's thoughts....

I think youre going to need some bigger front brakes and I think it would look fine if you ran the blower like in the top pic, turned off the blower towards the front of the truck just far enough to leave space to bring the return side back between the discharge side and the elbow, and 90 into the TB. hard to describe though... but ya. Do that. nice set up.

If you wanted to keep the TB facing forward just come out of the blower with a 45 angled forward and down enough to clear the pipe going into the TB. So the blower discharge will go under the pipe to the TB, and then 45 back up to the far port on the IC. Keep both pipes in line, one on top of the other it would probably look pretty good.

Looks really good. I'm curious why you decided to keep the throttlebody facing forward instead of turning it 90 degrees. Seems like you could have cut 3 bends out of the pipe as well as a good bit of extra length.
