Where does this oring go.
So I bought an o ring from riffraff by mistake and don't even know where it goes on the Turbo.

Where might it go?

That goes on the compressor housing of the turbo where the housing bolts to the turbo

I get that. But not even sure which part is what. The oring is huge and I can't think if anything on the Turbo that is that big.

The intake housing is 2 pieces.
When you pull them apart, the o-ring seals the 2 housings.

You can see the grove around there where the left over RTV is.

Yep it goes in the big aluminum housing on the turbo. To change it you have to pull the turbo and take it apart
