Default AC lines on a turbo integra?

Will I run into any problems with the AC lines (the high side line that runs in front of the radiator in particular) when I turbo the LS? I know I need to go 2.5" downpipe to keep the Compressor, but my main concerns are the lines that run along the passanger side (under the intake) and the high side line that runs in front of the radiator. Will the intercooler bump into it?

You'll have to remove that AC bracket and move it forward.

You should be fine. The high side will run pretty close to the WG/manifold depending on setup, but I heat wrapped mine and it's almost touching, but no problems. The low side does run near anything that I can think of.

I had to wrap the lower line because the dump tube vents near it. And with the Fluidyne, the high side is a little cramped, but not bad. You do have to move the bracket some as mentioned.
