> So having long tubes youd need to make them pretty much flow into one, then into the turbo? I know people make custom manifolds for V8 twins and singles but ive seen some also reatain the long tubes and pretty much 90\* bend off of them on each side then join up in the middle or a selected spot and then one up into the turbo. So then from the turbo over to the one side of the intercooler then out the other. May be a dumb question but one side im sure is designated hot/cold. Say you have a fitment issue and my hot side has to flow into the right side and cold side needs to be left to flow into TB, can that be special made? Then with exhaust. Seeing as the headers flow into the turbo now esentially, what do i do for exhaust in theory?

what side air enters an intercooler does not matter… a downpipe would have to come off the turbo and could be made to meet up (usually) with a flex section or your choice of catback to complete the exhaust.
