i bought the kit used...and when i got it, the turbo was bolted to the manifold backwards, and the silver turbine side was pointed towards the drivers side of the car and not the passenger like im used to...
which that is also how the downpipe is set up for that side...however with the turbo that way, it does not fit correctly between the motor and the radiator...so i flipped it around to the normal way...but with it this way the downpipe is incorrect and would stick out the front of the car...
so now i have a dilemma, with it the first way, the downpipe fits but the radiator is too big...
and the second way it fits between the motor and the radiator but the downpipe is incorrect...help!!

just keep the turbo facing the way that you are used to. then take the downpipe to a muffler shop and have them cut the downpipe and flip it the correct way facing the back of the car and welded back. real simple.
