90s Accord four cylinders are also wrong way engines. (F23). Pulleys on USA drivers side.
honda civic from 1995 ish to 2003 or somewhere aboot thereMe, neither.
VW EA888. Firewall side. I think that is probably marginally more efficient from a thermal perspective.When I replaced the intake manifold gasket on my 2007 Corolla it was easy because the intake side was in the front. On my Scions the exhaust is in front and the intake is on the back side. The logic of this design eludes me because it makes both the exhaust and intake paths longer. It also likely makes the injectors harder to access.
If you have a transverse mounted inline which side is facing the radiator? Which placement is most common?
Turbo and exhaust on radiator side, intake, firewall side, 17 Regal GS.Radiator side for the exhaust on my Regal, at least until 2014 when GM flipped things 180 degrees and put the turbo on the firewall side.

Such as "slip n slide" head gasket swapouts. Only took a couple hours!I miss the old Chrysler 2.2/2.5 both were in the back and out of the way, nothing failed back there so you never had to deal with either of them and it left a ton of room up front for normal maintenance.

Following up. My first transverse turbo 4…. Turbo and exhaust toward firewall. Makes for an easy access package.
J Series pulleys are on the pass side (US Cars) Transmission on driver.Yes the accords of that era were like that.
In 97 Honda introduced a V6 option in the Accord but I don’t know which way the transmission was facing on that one.
