I know the flange doesn't mount up, but isn't there an adapter I can buy? I should be able to rotate the intake side to make it point down right? :confused: The turbo is a T04B 2.75 inlet/T3 .82 AR, here are the numbers off the turbo, Intake side-20192, Exhaust side-20359, Center section-430683. Please let me know if I'm wrong about the turbo. Thank you for any help!

Looks like its a turbonetics turbo from the logo on the compressor. As long as you can get a T3(from the looks of it) manifold. You can clock it where you need the outlet as well as custom lines.
 
I believe I have seen t3/dsm adapters on ebay. If it were mine I would just fab an adapter myself.

You can probably take the turbo and a DSM exh mani to turbo gasket to a local welding shop and they could fab you an adapter flange.

The bigger problem looks like it would be getting the O2 housing to match right. I can't really see it well...
 
What is this turbo from? I would just get a well known dsm turbo and save youself the headaches of finding all the parts. Just my 2cents...
 
You need to think what your power/spoolup goals are to see if this turbo fits your needs. A .82a/r is pretty big and will not give you best spoolup for the street. Also there are a lot of compressor wheels that could be in that cover. Many of which may not perform very well under 20psi. I would try to find out which one it is as well as the turbine wheel.
