::used garrett T3 questions::
i bought this turbo used.. its off a saab, its a T3 but bolting it up to a drag manifold it will sit backwards(compresser side to the right) will this effect anything?? can i rotate the compresser?? i mean with the way it bolts up to the manifold in order to have the compresser inlet face down it would put the wastegate in the engine block. i hope that makes sence.. thanxx

What engine is this on?
I used the same set-up on my car (drag manifold + garrett t3 saab)
Just loosen the boots on the compressor housing and rotate it easily done.
Mine fit just fine (d15 and b16) with no clearance issues.
And i actually prefer the compressor on the driver side (drag style)

The turbo was a perfect match IMO. It spooled quick and pulled hard up to redline. It made decent power.
I just went to home depot and got a 3'' 90 degree pvc elbow with a 3'' - 2.5'' rubber reducer. fit just fine between the compressor and frame rail. It placed the filter rite behind the intercooler.
