You're going to have to explain better than that with more details. I have a saab t3 and I don't have a clue what you're talking about. Do you mean turn the turbo 180° so the compressor side is furthest to the left? In these situations, a picture REALLY helps. Beyond that, you just have to try it as many ways as you can until you find one that works in the space you have or you need to make more space. It's not rocket surgery ;)

ok how do you make a dp for your set up external or internal waste gate ? my turbo compressor side is facing the power streering pump right now and the space to make a dp is too tight on that side because it will hit the cluth slave cyliner if i rotate the compressor side to the stater side then it wil have space but anyway to do it with out rotate the turbo ? lol sorry i can't explane good hahaah

I also run the Saab T3 and I sold my standard manifold because it wont work with the internal wastegate. I just made my own manifold.

I used a hammer and made a small dent on the DP, at the spot where the nipple for the slave cylinder meets it.
