I will be using a Turbonetics cast log manifold(the one with the wastegate flange directly in the center, not on the #1 runner), and I was wondering which side the compressor needs to be on. I am assuming the passenger side considering similarly designed manifolds, but is it possible to switch it to the drivers side? That would me much more convenient. Oh yeah, B18c1 engine, T3/T04B turbo

it pretty much comes down to what down pipe you use.

So I could put the turbo facing any direction I want as long as I get the right downpipe?

all the fmax ones ive seen usually point it to the drivers side...and im pretty sure turbonetics just "bought out" or somehow got the exact kit more or less from fmax....so that gets my vote. if it will bolt to the manifold the other way......it will obviously work, you will just have to get a downpipe thats designed to work that way.

Cool, well it seems like compressor on the drivers side would be the best way to go
