Run your piping through the core support on either side of the radiator.

do something like this, mine is an integra. you might have to make new holes for brake cooler intake.

No, intercooler piping through the core support.

Take a look at the pics at the bottom of page 1. I did my IC piping like stated above to leave room for ducts.

Beside the radiator works very well if it is ducted to the front of the car, This creates a very high pressure area which is great for feeding brake ducts.

Also if you run a splitter the high pressure zone just above that is also a great place, and is usually low enough to clear any parts that fit inside your normal body line.
