A turret is not a firing arc (as I explained above). So if you had a Millennium Falcon with Outmaneuver, it could shoot outside its firing arc thanks to the turret, but Outmaneuver would not reduce agility against a ship outside its firing arc. The falcon could only reduce the agility of a ship it shoots in its printed firing arc (and of course, the falcon must also be out of that ship's firing arcs for Outmaneuver to work).

This is unfortunate for the falcon, but it's great for a ship that's attacking the falcon from behind with Outmaneuver, since the turret isn't a firing arc and thus doesn't protect it. Some ships like the TIE/sf have two printed firing arcs -- one in front and one in the back -- so it's much harder for enemies to Outmaneuver them, but easier for them to Outmaneuver enemies (higher chance that one arc or the other will catch an enemy). Several other ships have distinct firing arcs, e.g. the Lancer's Mobile Firing Arc and the Ghost's special firing arc. These count as firing arcs too. Same deal with the aux arcs on the Auzituck and YV-666 that gives them a 180 degree shot -- those are all firing arcs and will matter for Outmaneuver.

I hope that helps.
