It's pretty easy. You need to loosen all of the bolts that hold the compressor housing and/or turbine housing to the center section. I believe there are 6 each. From there you adjust the housings as required.

You more than likely will only have to do the compressor housing if you're trying to get it to line up with your intercooler.

You just want to make sure that the center section is in the right place for your oil feed and return lines which would be why you would have to loosen the 6 bolts from the turbine housing to the center section.

Hope that helps.

I just got doing mine. The clocking part is the easy part just loosen the 6 bolts out and turn it but if you have a wastegate on it it might interfere. Mine was hitting my SS drain pipe when I tried lineing up the turbo outlet to the FMIC inlet. Had to redrill the mounting holes and trim one of the wastegate mounting studs way down and still could not get it quiet as much as I wanted but fairly close. GL
