Default different radiator mounting locations

i have an h22 in a 92 civic hb. i'm attempting install my turbo kit but the radiator is getting in the way of EVERYTHING. i have a ram horn style manifold and the wastegate and downpipe will not fit with the radiator there. it is a PWR half core. i've made my mind up to just make this thing a full racecar. so what are my options on the subject of radiator choice or radiator placement?

If it's just a race car, then anywhere it'll fit will do...

Just angle it a little. On my friends street driven h22a turbo hatch we made new radiator mounting brackets and angled the oem radiator and moved it towards the passenger side a bit.

Get the radiator and stick it in the engine bay and see where it'll fit.
