Anyone have any pics of this turbo installed on an s13 Sr? Can you turn the compressor housing on these turbos cause if you bottom mount the thing I don't see how your hotpipe could reach.

Yes you can turn it, and you might have to modify your hotpipe to make it work.

You pretty much have the turbo turned so that it flows towards the strut tower then you either need a 90 silicone or 2 straight couplers with a 90 degree piece of pipe to give you a better idea.

That is exactly what I needed!! Now do you have to order the turbo with the housing turned or is it just a matter of unbolting it and rotating?

You losen the bolts around the center section and the compressor spins.

Awesome. I was hoping to get ahold of on of these but didn't know if I would be able to use my new GT Spec Intercooler kit. But looks like a few 90 couplers and maybe a straight pipe and I should be good. Just hope that doesn't fuck up the flow at all.
