Default turbo hitting ac bracket

I have a 94 del sol b16a3 and I'm trying to find a way to get the t3t4 hot side to clear the ac bracket that also doubles as torque mount bracket I've taken all ac from the car but the compressor bracket it looks like I can cut a section out of it my thing is everything I bought for turbo like down pipe has to run towards driver side I'm Ok with cutting any ideas.

Get a new downpipe. Or have that one modified.

This is your best bet. I would only cut the A/C bracket as a last resort and only if one bolt was going to be lost, even then I would be hesitant. Ever notice the beefy bolts used on the passenger side for the torque mount?
