Well I personally think that u can't unless u change the whole intake part of the turbo for front entrance...and 18g , 20g is size of the turbo ..Can't explain u further...I actually have one 18g which I bought from an Ebay for £300.

Speak to the Andy F about the front entry conversion,I'm sure he will able to help you

18G is bigger and will make more power than 16G,18G are usually rated at 360-370bhp(but i've seen few of them making 380bhp),20G usually making around 380-400bhp(but I've seen them more)

16G with supported mods will make 320-330bhp without the problem

I'm now back on a standard TD05 16g because we couldn't boost that 18g turbo properly cause I don't have forged engine..and didn't want to risk a damage..so turbo was really lagy because of it's size..and since than I wasn't on a power run so don't know the powe figure..but I'm gessing somwhere 300ish..and to be honest for everyday ride it's moore than enough ;-)
