Has anyone ever rotated or clocked a turbo? I just got my FP Green and the compressor body points the wrong way.

There should be a big snap ring holding on the compressor cover.  Take that off and the compressor cover should come off.  Just put it back on how you want it and perhaps put a little grease on the o-ring and reassemble.

That's how I did it for my 20g anyhow.

Ds-map / Jackal, highly recommended.  I've been running it for the last 3 - 4 years.  Amazing improvement in throttle response and overall power under part throttle conditions, and that was with the old maf still in place for 2 years.  Amazing tuning platform in my opinion, and best of all free.

It depends on the compressor cover.  Most have a pin that locates the compressor housing a certain way.  Ofcourse, that's assuming you don't have the additional complications posed by an internal wastegate actuator mount.  

Best bet, get out your snap ring pliers and open er up.  Then if you want it done right, get a new hole put in for the pin at the correct location at a machine shop.  If there's no pin, you should be good to go.
