It would help to know the engine size(2.0, 2.2,2.5 ?) and how much power your friend hopes to get.

Front entry TD series turbos can be converted back to 90 degree inlet with Samco tubing and still fit with the phase 1 inlet manifold, see
www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk and have a look at the turbo section
Edit to add - the gearbox will be the limiting point - your mates TD05 will most probably break it if tuned to its full potential.
