TD05 90 convert to front entry?
Is converting a 90 degree TD05 from an early car to front entry on a later car as simple as a adding a suitable Samco type hose or is there more to it than that?

More to than that.
The turbo compressor housing has the 90 degree bit. It's either replaced with a later housing or the original is cut and machined.

Had a feeling it wasn't going to be that simple. Is it possible to buy off the shelf housing suitable for the job, or any recommendations for someone to cut / machine one? Cheers 
I bought a TD05 fe cover from Andy Forrest before Christmas, was a simple job to fit once the large circlip had been wd40'd.
