Your referring to the ge intake manifold?? If so it appears to have its advantages as it keeps bends in the intake path to a minimum.
Did you consider rotating the compressor side of the turbo down? or wasnt there enough clearance??

gotcha...not an easy conversion, looks like it was done pretty well.
If you can get your hands on the exhaust manifold heat shield and wrap that section of the pipe up in thermal insulation it should be more than enough to keep the pipe cool...
all in all top work mate, all you need is a nice front bar and your laughin

that would be cool, as im considering a FMIC for my car, and the 2 chassis should have roughly the same dimensions....
Ive noticed many creative ways of routing the pipes...
