Default re-fitting my front mount flipped help please

hi all

i currently have a front mount fitted to my98 v4 car and am thinking of re-mounting it the other way up so the pipes come in and out the top not the bottom and exit/enter under the headlights instead of via the inner wings which will save quite a bit of pipe and look a lot better in my opinion.

i did think of rotating my manifold but have decided to just port it a bit and fit some spacers to help keep it cool as i like my creature comforts too much like the air con.

could someone tell me exactly what i would need to do and how difficult it is.

ie; i know the front support bar has to come off but do i need to chop much away to fit the pipes through ?

thanks any coments or advice welcome.
