If the oil drain is gravity feed...will it even flow out of my turbo since my oil drain fitting is at the top side of my turbo? if my turbo was a clock the oil outlet would be between 1 an 2 o clock..so will it even flow out properly?

no. oil drain needs to come out the bottom and gravity feed back to the oil pan. you have to clock the turbo. loosen up the bolts on the compressor and exhaust housing (on some turbos c-clip) and rotate the center section of the turbo to where the oil feed is at the 11-12-1 o-clock position and the oil drain is at the 5-6-7 o-clock position.
