i was going to be buying a lovefab sst manifold and garret t3/to4e turbo and was wondering which side the turbine generally comes off of when on that manifold. i am going to be getting a downpipe soon so i need to know if the downpipe needs to come off from the left or right. can you choose which way you want to mount the turbo?? sorry for the newbie question

 

if you don't want AC, its easier for IC piping, and downpipe fitment to run the compressor on the driver side and the turbine on the passenger side. althought you could run a 3" dp with the compressor on the opposite direction.... have it configured for the compressor on the driver side... it'll save you some headaches.

 

but basically you could choose which side you want to run it on?

 

if you don't have AC you can usually pick which way you want it. Ideally if you are going to have the comp on the drivers side (which I would recommend also) you would want the turbine flange on the manifold to be closer to the block. I don't know if Cody makes them two different ways or if it work fine both ways. HTH

 

with my sst I have the compressor on the drivers side. I am not sure either whether Cody makes them to run the compressor on the passenger's side or not.
