M2 large IC with single turbo question

Im having no luck with the search...

A while back i was looking at a thread where someone used a long runner a-spec mainifold with a M2 large intercooler. It had a bunch of pics. can anyone can help me find this.

or im looking at getting an a-spec kit but want to keep my m2 IC and want to use the long runner manifold. I know there is some work to be done but i need to know just how tight it is.

lots of work will need to be done with the long runner manifold to use the m2 IC. Is it a large or med one? I saw a modified M2 Large SMIC with the end tank inlet (closest to the turbo) move to the side of the IC. Looks like some major custom work.

If you get the short runner manifold I believe it is easier to modify...you can just switch to a long runner later on if you decide to go front mount.

The pic with the inlet moved to the side of the end tank is what ive been searching for.

Thats my buddy's car. It was still a tight fit and didnt end up dynoing that well because the whole intercooler wasnt being utilized. I think the best way to do it would be clock the turbo down and either flip the intercooler or weld a bung on the lower side of the right end tank. Search in the I think single turbo section under my name or racerx7 or something. The thread title will be similar to this one.
