Leiden did it in his one. got a pretty good result from memory. Send him a message.

pretty sure he used the altezza sump arrangement and pickup so the motor could sit upright.

Nah disco potato is GT2860r the 71 comp wheel is better suited to the later gen 3SGTE's.

Just wait till one becomes available second hand. You would be much better in the long run as the TD04 is rather small. Turbos are expensive for a reason!

Disco might be a little small IMO.
