You can move the coolant overflow tank a couple of places. If you cut the notch off the bottom of the bracket some can turn the tank to clear the pipe. You can also use a longer hose and mount it back by the firewall. It kinda stuffs back in there kinda behind the shock tower.
Personally I went a different route with the cold pipe.

I'm running a stand alone so I don't have to worry about running a MAF or anything AT ALL. There fore I just have a piece of Metal screening over the front of the turbo and it looks really clean with everything still in the stock location. You should totally go with one that will solve your problem. Still in the assembling process though I can't wait until people look under my hood and the go OMG where is your MAF and OMG you have no distributor?

I went to a local wrecking yard, and found an overflow bottle that was smaller and rigged it up.
