    Piping above subframe with a/c.

    Quick update: 2.5” fit without to much issue. I may oval out the section under the a/c but current it’s not hitting. Really there is only one way for this to work so I imagine what I’ve down is as others would have expected. Straight out turbo with 90 degree behind a/c then wiggle around sway bar an hit the intercooler. Total of 3 couplers will be used on the hot side of the intercoooler. All the pipe was from a generic amazon intercooler kit. I had enough to do all the piping.
    I was also able to keep a 3” intake pipe for the turbo.

    Looking good! I wonder if this is possible with the Steed?

    Good work. Looks very similar to my setup with the spa manifold.

    Quick update. Found if I dropped the sway bar prior to install I can actually get the entire piece in one shot. This saves me from having a coupler in the middle.

    Yep with some space between. When you say it like that I feel I’ve put to much time into this project.
