These won't work for TD04s, there really isn't much room for the turbos as it is let alone adding on an adaptor.

You may get away with using one if you can get a TD04 that will fit in there without messing around, and you put in remote oil filter adaptors... but if you are planning on leaving the oil extension stalk there, it won't fit. The turbo will foul on the stalk from my experience.

Limited room and they look poorly made.
Good idea but would need a decent welder lol

Short of removing air con, fan & taking a sledge hammer to the bulk head, none of those style adaptors will fit as mentioned due to lack of space.

On my pictures thread there are test fits of 13g TD04s to the standard manifold. They really squeezed in the TD03s.

Sledge hammer it is then, air con is over rated anyway lol
Might have to accept that if u want silly power from these engines the only route is a chassis swap,in a car with more room :)

Wut?

Plenty of TD04 swaps done - making a manifold is not a major undertaking by any stretch

Plan B is always doing a single turbo manifold as well (can use non turbo or even the turbo manifolds for the initial section)

Why pour thousands into struggling to get that last 10-20hp from the little TD03's when you have a low compression big-ish capacity engine quite capable of making a lot of power *if* those two little bottlenecks are removed
