garret t3 turbo!

i was looking at a couple to pictures that people had and it looks to my like on the turbo 2s the exhaust housing is located twards the firewall and the intake is located twards the front of the car. i on ly ask this because i dont have my turbo 2 at my house yet so i haven see what they look like. i want to know if the flange for the turbo housing to the exhaust manifold it the same as the t3 turbos housing to manifold flange have. the t3s flange is rectangular in shape sort of, just enogh so that its not perfectly square. thanks in advance let me knkow if you can find pics of the exhaust manifold flange to.

Our turbos are Hitachis. They are NOT the same as the T3.

yeah they arent the same but they are based on the garret design. in answer to your question, yes, the exhaust goes out the back towards the firewall and the intake air comes in on the front side.
