Default offset center manifold for backdoor setup

I'm redoing the turbo setup on my crx, and going to a pwr back door intercooler. Problem is my custom log mani doesnt put the turbo far enough over to the driver side for the compressor to dump right into intercooller. Is there a manufactorer with a mani that puts the turbo more to the driver side?

I'm hoping to find a way to dump the turbo into the IC like a full race setup, then have the IC outlet piping go straight up to the tb into a 90* turn into tb like a GSR intake.
