Ive seen it done on a 5th gen coupe with a small IHI, But the adapter plate and downpipe looked like it took some serious time too make.

I have a manifold made by cory at lovefab.com, a t3 turbo and an external tial wastegate. If I can keep my a/c, I'm pretty sure you can find a way to keep your a/c
