Turbo housings
Can the turbocharger housings be rotated so the outlet is facing away from manifold?

I've been thinking about it. There's a Volvo at a wreckingyard here that has an intercooler...

have a look at Audi 5000 intercoolers they might have a better shape. And the inlet and outlet are next to each other.

the odds of me finding an Audi ANYTHING here are slim to none.
![]() nice try tho ![]() I've done some tinkering and I find that some radiators from small cars with V6 engines can handle up to 25PSI before bursting....and the inlets and outlets are in perfect spots. not real sure that I can use a radiator tho...

im thinking of putting mine laying down over the turbo, with heat shielding and wrapping the turbo of course.(perhaps a VNT turbo) and have some louvers put into the hood, and air piped to the intercooler.also use the N/A manifold..

I think I'll cave and go with air/water. No good places for an air/air without cutting.
