Is this the right part?

Did I receive the wrong part? Flapper is ligned up the same. Vacuum nipple ligned up the same way.. Wastegate arm is going in the opposite direction???.....Ordered this from FP Performance last week. Its the Evo high pressure wastegate actuator..I Looked at there picture for it online and its design is the same. I pulled off the old one because it wasnt opening up at all. After struggling to get things ligned up I decided to compare it with the one I pulled off. When I force the new one on, it creates a one sided opening where the arm meets the body of the wastegate and doesn't seem correct... Maybe im installing it wrong IDK...Any insight would be appreciated..

Problem fixed and even though no one offered any help or suggestions, for anyone whos had this problem or runs into this problem you can actually twist the whole wastegate arm to fit the angle you need...Hope that helps the next person.... Not sure if its with every actuator but the FP high presssure WG does allow you to twist it.I called them to get this info.
