I am confused (nothing new )

If you chop the 90 degree elbow off an old TD05 and fabricate a good front entry, will this turbo then fit a MY00 UK spec - in terms of uppipe, downpipe, oil and coolant feeds and drains in a bolt on fashion? I don't want to do anything destructive so that the car is not easily returned to standard.

Up pipe and down pipe the same but you will need the oil feed and return from a TD05 aswell as the coolant pipes .

Big Bear can you share what sort of results you have had out of your TD05 - boost thresholds, power, torque, driveability etc? What other mods? I know you have an ex-Pat turbo

The pipes you mention - some come attached to a turbo, some don't? Do you know exactly what I need to get hold of?

Your help most appreciated.
