Ok chief slow down. Time for you to do 2 things. 1) Go to HOW STUFF WORKS .com and choose turbocharger. Understand how a turbocharger works. It has lots of diagrams and cross-section photos to follow.
2) Look here

i know how they work, i might just not be able to get my question out right, i just and to know if the way you clock the turbo on your manifold makes a defference or not because of hotside cold side deal, if you can clock the hotside backwards or vs vers. sry for the mix up i know how they work can have installed them and removed them xtimes.

You can clock them in either direction. (I think that's what you're asking?)
