Forward Facing Manifold and A/C?

alright so im looking to upgrade my turbo manifold on my 05 evo 8 to the STM turned forward facing manifold... i want to keep my A/C though. So my question is if i use a half size radiator and a/c condenser, Would i still be able to keep my A/C? im also looking to run a 6262 turbo if that matters.

The way STM's FF manifold sits AC is not possible (In the way of the compressor I think). I had a FF manifold with an Evo compressor and civic condenser. Its basically sold to a forum member here but there are companies that make FF manifolds that are AC friendly.

Good luck.

Good luck man! Having a/c and a front facing kit is a decent project I take it your going to use the honda 1/2 cut a/c condenser and custom lines?
