Default What side does the hks manifold face the compressor?

Well hks makes their manifolds again now, and I can buy one from a buddy...but I like having the compressor on the driver side. Would anyone know which way they face it? Can you face it either way or would one way hit the block? I know a member has one of these mani's (jabroni-something??) but couldn't find him in the member listing. -sean

I would say it depends on the size of the compressor housing if it would hit the radiator. On many manifold you can mount the turbo like you want. IF the HKS Manifold is angled to sharp, you can always cut the flange down and reweld it in an decenter angle.
