Default tricky intercooler plumbing

Im in the process of fabricating the intercooler charge pipes, I have opted to retain the a/c unit and find that on the passenger side (JDM), there is no room to position any pipework as all the a/c is in the way and a big unfrendly window washer refill bottle, how have you guys overcome this problem and and where have you routed your plumbing removing a/c is not an option

pics would be good

I took my windshied swuirter reservoir unit out....
I have a JDM front end and mounted the IC really really forward, so I had to do some trick, but it'll work...
use a few 90 deg bend piping to make the piping after and before the IC, it's easier to work with 90 deg bend, than having to find a U-bend that is wide enough to clear obstacles..

If you look below the resivior there should be enough space to cut a hole in the plastic to slide the piping through, thats what I did.

This is on a 98 Civic.
