good job on the merge... looks real good... and everything looks like it should fit... tight... but fit in snug and look good. Also with the turbo down there people wont pop the hood and see that they are in trouble right away. lol

It will fit in front in a stock engine bay as long as you dont mind losing A/C and if you dont mind buying a set of pusher fans to put on the other side of the radiator (must eliminate stock fans for clearance).

you COULD run a manifold that is mounted "correctly" and have a pipe come from the back of the motor to the front. Wouldn't be as clean. Plus you would have a lot of fun running pipes or you could do it the easy way and go under the cross member (lose LOTS of ground clearence).

Im ditching a/c in my setup. I figure i got windows and t-tops. If it gets hot go faster with the windows down and tops off. lol.

Like Nick said, the outlet of the manifold could be near he firewall and the pipe could run under the motor mount to the front. Here is the problem though:

I switched the pass. manifold to the driver's side so the outlet is up front and wil clear the steering shaft. This means I only have one manifold left (the dr's side now on the passenger side). With the dr's side on the pass. side the outlet is toward the front.

Have big power for cheap or keep AC???? Its preference I think.
