I am in the middle of installing mine, and have a question.. I got the stock waste gate off, and have worked at getting the new one in there (tough spot, and big hands, and very little visibility). I believe that the wastegate lever has turned, in all of the pics it shows the lever "pointing" towards the exhaust housing inlet, mine is "pointing" towards the turbo..

I can't turn it with my fingers, is it supposed to be easy to turn? Or do i have to put pliers on it and turn it like that? Or is it in the right spot and im just turned around?

Thanks, I will try to lightly turn it with pliers and see if that helps.
