Quick but weird question. Is there any way that the throttle body can be rotated 180 degrees on the intake manifold?
I'm swapping my ej22t nto a Volkswagen and the engine maintains the same orientation in the engine bay but my throttle cable is on the opposite side to that of the stock Subaru location.

Re: Throttle body rotation.
You'd likely have to cut off the ports for the coolant bypass through the throttle body, unless you have room. You'd also have to redo/extend the wiring for the TPS on the other side and fab up a mount for the throttle cable. There may be some clearance issues with the throttle cable and IAC valve & PCV hoses.

Re: Throttle body rotation.
As josh said, there's a little bit of work but it can be done. Mine is rotated
