dumb newb question
:1 sorry to ask this might sound dumb for everyone but... today i finally got the bolts on the manifold loose (they where such a bitch!) so i have the turbo, manifold and downpipe in its place, but something doesnt seem right, the oil drain hole i'ts pointing up, (aint supposed to be up?? :1) and the compressor outlet is pointing towards the block but not entirely its about a 45 angle i tried turning the turbo the other way and it's even worst, i was wondering if i could get one of the housings loose and twist it so that the oil drain is down as well as the compressor outlet.

Re: dumb newb question
There is a sticky on rotating the housings to line it up for your setup.You need to loosen the bolts on both housings and then you should be able to rotate till it works for you.Sometimes you need to use a rubber mallet to motivate it to move.
