Thanks Austin,

Basically cut the Crossover pipe in the center and rotated 45 deg. Down and dissected
and reassembled fancy radiator hose and couplers  to produce nice turbo to intercooler
hose with no sharp bends and a Bypass Valve Fitting inline.  All was fine, but this
project does require more bending, cutting and fitting than expected, but that is how
projects go.

One option can be seen here http://www.justfourrings.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=191
By cutting the cross pipe and installing a reducer and an metal elbow.
Another option is to what I did and use a piece of prop shaft to extend the pipe down
more like a euro 1B IC http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/files/678087_22_full_945.jpg
 I also used a reducer elbow 3 to 2.5 not pretty  but it works.
