compressor housing adjustment? *pics now*
 
hey guys, i bought a volvo 15g turbo off a friend of mine, I haven't recieved it yet but he says that one half of the turbo can almost do a complete 360, he doesnt know a whole lot about turbos, neither do i. i was just wondering if i am screwed, or is it not that hard to adjust it to where i want it and then bolt it in place?? that means i have to figure out how to adjust the wastegate too....this sux, anyone that can give me any advice, it will be greatly appreciated, thanks alot.


edit.....heres a few pics

all turbos can be adjusted and rotated. you are lucky that it seems to be rotating so simply. i cant rotate mine for crap, and i need too.

look at how the WG actuator is mounted. Many are in a solid part of the compressor housing. Just move the housings and drill and tap new holes. Just go shallow on em.

but once i have it positioned where i want it, how do i stop it from moving? the wastegate isnt attached right now, so im kind of blind when it comes to re-attaching it.....?



on a side note, i told my g/f im ordering her a HMT thong ;D
