I live in surprise, so i can probably come over and take a look this week some time. From the looks of the pic you're going to need another manifold. If it was just a spacing issue you could get a spacer or have the flange rewelded at a different angle. The biger issue is the wastegate flange, is that an evo manifold? If you get the bep bolt on housing you will spool 500-1000 rpm's sooner and be able to use a stock mani, and o2 housing. As for the intercooler piping and mount, either clock the turbo a little different, or break out the grinder.

Clock the compressor housing to clear the mount.
