Does the outlet of the fmic face the engine?

Havnt got one yet as trying to figure out fitment before I splash the cash. Didn't want to buy something that was wrong.

Been doing some digging for last couple hours and seems ports facing backwards is most common and shifting the radiator over running boost pipes in the space made by that. Am I right?

How far over did you move radiator worried about clearance to the charger

Mines a forge intercooler with the outlets either end. Mounted a 90° silicone pipe on but i had to trim a very small piece of bodywork (little lip that sticks out) to avoid kinking the pipe. Radiator sits in original position too.
