Your exhaust routing (all of it) looks basically the same as mine.
Has anyone tried cutting down the height of the gearbox crossmember to give more room between it and the gearbox (if that make sense)? I think I've seen later model defender crossmembers not as thick.
Or did you find you had plenty of room.
On my thread I have pics of mine going through the wheel space and under the firewall and passenger floor. Too easy, and lets me get the starter off if I have too. Cooler for the starter motor too.

The other issue with the "out the guard and under the firewall" route is it doesn't allow you to fit a sill tank on the passenger side. On mine if I need to remove the starter I can just drop the dump pipe section from turbo to front crossmember - not quite as easy, but I've only had it off once in the last 18 months so no drama.

I have what is no doubt a very silly question....
Any reason the turbo can't be installed on the same exhaust manifold, but spun around so the dump pipe is facing the firewall?
The air intake would be facing forwards - not very convenient with the air filter location I admit. But apart from that... ?
