Default clocking the turbo???

alright, so i am having trouble getting the oil return to face straight down. The only way i can move the center cartrige is to remove 4 10mm bolts. These bolts won't go in unless the return is about 45 degrees from being straight down.

Any suggestions.

I'm not going to clutter this thread up with informative help or anything like that.. I just am curious about your user member name?

Are you a dawson's creek fan? "I don't wanna wait till my turbo creep is over..."

loosen the 13mm bolts (i believe ) that hold the exhaust housing to the center section about half way, bang the ---- out of it with a hammer, rotate it, tighten back up, and post you're next question.
