Gah! turbo does not fit VTF3.3!

[shadyJ]

HI,
I purchased and received a used Turbo, but it does not fit my VTF3 mk3! It looks like the turbo "pipes" are too long, and the pipe ends hang a couple inches below where they should fit into the ports. If I wanted to get the pipes to fit in the ports, the box would rest on the sub at a angle, that is, if the pipes would rest in the ports, which they won't at that angle. In all the pictures I have seen the turbo box rests flat on top the subwoofer. Is this turbo made for the VTF3 HO? I thought they were the compatible with each other?

Shady, the turbo ports pivot, so they could be in the wrong orientation? The small "enclosure" that houses the turbo ports should have the ports on the top part of the enclosure.

If you could post some pictures of how you are hooking it up, that would help.

Thanks

Sincerely,

TURN IT OVER and swing the pipes down.

OH MY GOD !!!!
I can't believe I didn't see that before! I noticed the pipes pivot, but I didn't think to turn them 180 degrees. ha, I am such a dunce! I will try that a bit later on, thanks for the replies guys.

That's OK, I made the same mistake early on when I had my 3.3 Turbos.
