Just a question...

Is it bad to have a turbo charger positioned any way but horizontal. The turbo in these pictures is tilted up a bit. Wouldn't that cause the turbine to fail quicker cause the weight of the turbine shaft would act down causing shear stress in the compressor seal...?

Quit over thinking things.

The oil drain is the more critical issue. AT that angle, I would think it is fine.

Well no, you have to admit it's a solid build. All the work is top quality, I'd like to see what the guy does with his own car, and not a customers.
