Take to a local ac shop. That way they can route the line around everything perfectly. And give lots of room.

Looks like it. The hi side being aluminum can be bent out if the way if need be.
The low side looks like it just needs to be lengthened.
But If at the ac shop the make what ever bend is needed.

Or just do it yourself exactly the way you want it done.... I routed my cold size hose away from the exhaust housing and over the passenger side valve cover. Much better than tucking it around the other side of the turbo.

I used fittings and barrier hose from ColdHose dot com.

Here is a pic of my cold side hose while I was doing some wiring. I used a 4.3L V6 accumulator and then some cold hose fittings and barrier hose.

How are you running the water hoses to the turbo? Before the heater core?
