Who is running a FP manifold and is running their intercooler piping over the manifold as in the factory route?

So I have a little flange coming off the compressor outlet on my 16G and a coupler that connects to the pipe that goes over the manifold. I'm having a problem with the coupler touching the exhaust manifold. I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas on how to re-route with without using a j-pipe.

If anyone has any pictures they'd like to share that would be cool.

I'll post a picture a little later showing what I'm talking about.

That's not a 16G. LOL

OP: I have an old RRE pipe for my turbo outlet and it fits great with my 16G and FP manifold. It sounds like you just need to have a shop build you a new piece.

I can't use a 1st gen j pipe due to the fact that I'm running a factory radiator and fan.

then it might need to be extended in some way by a fabricator, maybe cutting it at the flange and extended it might help. It would help if you post some pics of the issue, is this the ETS j pipe for the gvr4??
