Default front mount intercooler

I have a front mount on my subaru and was wondering how hard would it be to reverse my inlet and change my piping to fit or can I purchase pipe work?

What year car is it? That is what makes or breaks it. Early classics you need to cut and weld the inlet. Later classics you can just spin and adjust throttle body angle. Newages you can just rotate the inlet.

None of the above are rocket science, but you also need to adjust things like wiring length and throttle cables dependant on which year your car is.
