i got the inline turbo kit and the gt35r option. i was going to mount the turbo to the manifold for a test fit and noticed the compressor outlet is facing towards the motor. also the flanges do not sit flush with one another. i turned the compressor outlet so that it would face upwards like it is supposed to, but now the oil drain is facing upwards. does anyone know if i could maybe turn the center section to make the drain face down? any help would be appreciated.

 

i sort of get what you are saying, its early in the morning so im trying to imagine your problem in my head so sorry if im not much help but did you clock the turbo?

 

there should be bolts on the compressor side and the exhaust side each, you can loosen them and clock the turbo any way you want

 

the compressor outlet now faces up. the oil drain is now up. so i can loosen all the bolts and just clock the turbo the correct way without damaging anything? the ball bearings aren't gonna fall out are they?

 

no the bearings wont fall out, just make sure the gasket inside the turbo sits nicely and dont pinch it.

 

dont take the bolts all the way out, just loosen them, and you wil be fine

 

ok, well i will give it a try when i get home. thanks for your help
