Default turbo oil inlet wrong way?

well i got my td40 ssautochrom turbo but the oil hole on the bottem is smaller then the top on the top it has the flange thing. so i was wondering if i can use it this way or will i have to clock it the other way. i dont know why they would make it like this on purpose.

nobody wants to help u since u bought from ss.

you need to rotate the center section the right way.
unless the turbo is a stock replacement, there is no way a seller knows what manifold will be used or placement of a turbo.

because it's made in China, I'm assuming they have no idea what they're putting together :P

people tried to tell you about the service of ssautocunt. even if their new products test to be the best (which i highly doubt) their service still sucks.
