Going to start installing a few things on Saturday, the blower on Tuesday/Wednesday

Well, The blower install has begun. Got the old manifold off and the new valley cover installed. Set the blower on for test fit and as you can see, there is just no room to blow the turbo strait into the TB with out completely redoing the hot side to move the turbo, and that aint happening, 
. It would hit everything at such a weird angle, I wouldn't like how it would flow. Still haven't decided if I'm going to keep the intercooler for this first go-around, but I think I am. If I decide to try a bigger turbo, I might drop the intercooler then and see how it does. Or if the IATS are really low still and I don't get the off idle hit I want I might pull intercooler and see if it does any better.

You need to make friends with the silicone coupler guys and make a mold for a wild reducer with a funky bend right there. Sure would look nice.
Or take and make a tube from the blower to the TB that gets it (The TB) directly in line with the turbo and use a straight reducer.

. If it didn't have the TB adapter it would be better, but still not the best.
