    I currently have a L36 block with L26 heads and intake manifols. Is it possible to turn the upper intake manifold to the passenger side so that I can have more room for the turbo what all would I need to do to make it work if possible or what would you recommend?

    i think a camaro 3800 intake would work for that.

    98 Buick Regal GS, F body brakes, Caddy STS wheels, tinted tails L36 bottom end, lightly ported heads, 1.95 roller rockers, headers, gen 5 N* 3.0 pulley, FSIC, 42 lb injectors, a BrandonHall rebuilt trans, DHP tuned and AEM water/Meth injection https://goo.gl/gpV5kW

    You could try a Holden intake IIRC there was a guy selling a few in the classified section.

    To do the F-body you'd need the F-body intake manifold (not sure if you'd need the lower intake mani off the F-body or not, let's just say you do)

    You'd need to relocate the battery, Throttlebody adapter (to what every TB you're using) and extend all the sensors/PCV

    youll need the upper and lower intakes as well as the TB (cable or DBW) and youll have to switch to the early horizontal bolt alternator and tensioner. the upper hose is fun...i didnt like the angle the pipe hit the TB/maf so i made an adaptor turndown to use the L67 TB with a straight shot at the tb/maf for nearly 16".
    battery relocated to drivers fenderwell with turbo discharge pipe routed going straight down and around the AC accumulator and then around the subframe/rad core support to the IC inlet to avoid any tubing through the fender.

    someday i will have a custom mailbox upper for the Fbody lower for this flamming heap

    i dont have the time with my current project load but its not that bad...plenty have gone the F body route without nearly as much expense/custom fab work.

    to put it into perspective...just the parts for that upper radiator hose is nearly 200$

    Yes, if you're getting rid of the supercharger. In that case, you would also need the lower intake manifold and heads from an N/A car to match.
