Default turbo question please help !!

so i have a turbo b20 and i got a new turbo because my seals were bad but the new turbo when i put it on the manifold the intercooler wont connect because side that goes to the intercooler faces the radiator instead of down how my old turbo was to line up with the intercooler piping ? so is there a way to turn the turbo im new and dont wanna mess it up !!
thanks guys

See the 6 bolts on the back of the compressor housing? Loosen those and rotate the housing to the desired position. The same thing is done to the turbine housing, but make sure the center section is not over 20 degree angle for the feed & return line.

Yes. But the compressor side is more than likely the one that needs to be adjusted, not the turbine side.

he nailed it, you can also search for lots of info. Its an odd term so its not expected everyone knows it. Its called clocking the turbo generally.

let us know how the new deal works! or is it just a same turbo replacement?
