Intake manifold reversal for FMIC

Is it possible to mount the intake manifold so that the intake faces forward? Noticed on the Auto Art model that the WRC has a huge FMIC with much less piping than traditionally going only a short distance directly into a reversed intake manifold.
I don't even have a turbo yet, I was just wondering what I could do if I sold my book to a movie studio and actually had money...

But you have to relocate the Alternator to the AC position and remove the AC altogether.

Yeah, don't give the bastard extra help! He doesn't even have a turbo so he's just wasting everyone's time anyway. If he did, he could figure it out on his own or would have the money to pay someone else to do that for him.
Gotta go visit my friend. Should bring something with me for the pitbull...
Here kitty, kitty, kitty...

a friend in the MSC here did it on his 2.5RS-T .. you have to custom make a plate to change the angle of the throttttle body.. cuz in it's actual position, it doesn't clear the hood. :\
beside that, it's just .... custom building everything
(hoses, wires, brackets... )
