You will find that the IC pipes will be a bit of a pain, but it looks like you put the turbos a bit further back than I did, so it may not be too bad.

Good luck with the build, and post a lot of pictures.
Yes it would have been much easier had i went with external gates, but going internal saves me $600. I pushed the turbo farther back so I can run a short filter right off the compressor housing, with a hydro shield. This gives me room to run the charge piping through the wheel well to the IC. As long as i can get the driver side to work, the passenger side should be cakewalk.

I have modified the wastegate bracket to allow the actuator to hug closely to the housing. This pretty much solved the low clearance issue. Its currently sitting right at same level as my resonated test pipes and this is safe enough for me.
