Default Anyway to keep AC with manifold.

I know that using an hf manifold causes one to lose ac because of the turbo and downpipe placement. Is it possible to get around this and keep the ac compressor in place. I know that the prefab kits do, but they are not cheap. Are there any cheap routes to go for a manifold?

i've seen one guy do it, but his adaptor plate was turned all funny to make it happen, it seems like more work then it needs to be, buy one of stealthmodes mani's and call it good
