just do it its easy, flip the core over then mock up pipe work to suit, get it welded job done. You can use the original pipe work to make the new pipework but it will obviously need chopping and welding as required

if your talking about daz davies his car has a front mounted turbo, so different again. i dont know if it makes much difference or not tbh, i went from a pretty much stock 2l wrx motor to the 2.5 pictured but it cant hurt.
