I have a simlar setup with an h23 in a 97 accord. I used a tripple core race rad & it had very little clearance. I had the down pipe custom fabbed. Mine was 90 deg to the pass side and then down. Then 90 deg to go underneath the oil pan. I don't have a pic right now but will post later. If i remember correctly it took 9 cuts and re-welds but worked out fine with no loss in pipping size.

oh you can tell from that pic of the downpipe that it definitely goes the way you have it. i would try clocking the compressor housing and see if it will give you any more room between it and the motor mount. for the dp, try putting it up through there with the longer lower exhaust side facing the drivers side front tire, then twist it once it goes up through. maybe this has been tried but im just going off of what i can see.
