I'm new at it too, and there's not a lot of space. BEGi's kit (what I just got) runs down by the alternator pulley and then around the outside of the sway bar mount. on the other side it does a similar thing only it comes through just in front of the control arm bolt and heads up next to the power steering pump (if you have one)

- I'll end up removing the damn ps In short order, Im hesitant About removing the ac with summer comming around the corner.
-I could clock the turbo so it points downward but then again I'll have no way to mount the wastegate.

youre welcome:

IMHO, it's more effort than it's worth. im telling you to route it like Brad is doing. he's using stripes pipes, and the only thing he has to do is lower one pipe. it lines right up.
although, if you have P/S it may be in the way.
or, buy the outlet adapter, and clamp a 2" 90* bend on it. (ill freaking send you one i never used) And do it like mine, next to the P/S
