is it possible to switch the oil drain with the oil feed, like have the oil feed line go in where the drain would normaly be and have the drain line connect where the oil feed would normaly be? im askin this because the drain is on top of my turbo the way i have to have it positioned to connect to the manifold.

nate, ive already answered your first question.
you need to clock your housing so that the oil return is pointing straight down.
otherwise, your turbo will smoke like a pig.
and no, you cant switch the feed and return lines.

Like he said. Just loosen the exhaust manifold and the compressor housing and spin the center section the right way and retighten the bolts. Its not that hard to do smile.gif
