IC / hood clearance

[JN210]

So I was looking at my IC pipes and was wondering if itd all clear the hood, and of course...it didnt, so, what im looking for are some options, Im debating on bending the pipe kind of to an oval shape to clear the AC so the hood SHOULD shut, not completely sure but i know that the pipe is why it wont shut.

options im thinking of;
remove AC completely
bend pipe
take to shop (suggestions?)

or if any of you guys know how to fix this, I can pay you for your work.

Just need something that connects the turbo to the IC pipe over the AC and clears my hood.

How far does the pipe stick out underneath your car?? Does it hang lower than the bumper? Oval the pipe if you can, should be ok.

Get rid of the a/c, then you'll have plenty of room. Otherwise oval the pipe like said above.

Just leave the hood off.
