Default crx charge piping

I need to know the best way to route my charge pipe out of the compressor. I am running the max rev manifold on a b18b, and the turbo is turned in the conventional direction (compressor on passenger side) Man its tight down there, im not sure if its going to clear with the 3'' down pipe. Pics would be great, any and all sugestions are welcomed and thanked in advance. Allso i have a newer half size PWR radiator that I would like to make work, but it doesnt look like i can fit it to well without cutting the crossmember. Once again, any and all help welcomed

rotate the housing till u know u can clear it.

that is what i did, when i bought the turbo, it was facing up, now it is facing down (mounted with the compressor towards the passenger side).

i have a 95 civic, so i dont have to worry about the bottom bar that the front mount is bolted to. so just rotate it till u get the right fit.

you can check out the "turbo project" page on the homemadeturbo.com website for similar setups like yours and see how they did the piping, and/or email them with your question....

i have checked there projects, no b18's. I understand how to clock the turbo, and the outlet is facing down. It's just that I dont know if there is going to be enough room to route the 3" downpipe and the charge pipe. Perhaps i should turn the turbo around? have it face the other way, then run the factory radiator?
HELP!!

okay they ran the turbo the oppisite way than mine. I tried that but the stupid manifold throws the turbo way forward into where the radiator goes, and when i put the half rad in, the turbo discharge hits the radiator.
