It's called clocking the turbo. You loosen the bolts and spin it around and then tighten them back up

with this kit do you have to stand the radiator up or does it stay in the factory location?

The pics show the radiator in the stock location. You can say goodbye to your stock fans though.

Edit for reading like a 'tard, nope that wont work but you can just turn the fans around and rewire them backwards making them pushers in stead of pullers.

Look at the pics, def. relocated the Alt., but my question is, where did you get that idler from, I keep seeing them on cars where the alt use to go.

That idler is on the stock alternator bracket.

I bought the alternator bracket from SmokinHawk who makes them. I just kept the idler pulley on there. This is also the 500$ ebay kit. The only issue I see if the o2 sensor needs to be welded elsewhere as it just wont fit where it is.

Got all the hot piping in, its a tight fit but it works. The smaller v-clamps work great but the big ones suck ass. If you get the kit, remember to assemble the downpiping and put it in there first, then cross over then header. Ive pretty much taken the kit off and on about 4 times now....

Piping I got local, he said it was off ebay. Im running a master power t70, I believe a t76 would be pushing it. This allows you to keep a/c. The intercooler I bought is an Mishimoto, got off ebay. I went with a slightly smalle IC in order to retain my fog lights.
