Any reason why the T4 flange is cocked to one side? Just wondering. Other than that it looks good!

yes. you are 110% right. so by being sarcastic, you were correct. props. turbos have no "upright" position, their boxes do not say THIS SIDE UP. you can **** the angle that the turbo sits at if its for fitment, or just for clearance, or even ease of getting at the bolts.

way to be an *** to andrew, hes mah boy.

gravity doesnt work when youre staring at the sky. thats how mr magnus blew up his motor. oil goes to back, pickup tube is exposed, then you got no oil to pump. just sayin that gravity isnt what you think. dry sump would be perfect...ah my next setup...i cant wait to do it all again and do it all right.
