Defender / Disco Turbo

Yes but you have have to take the turbo apart (two halves) and rotate the two halves so that the exhaust side meets up with your exhaust.

Remove the big circlip holding the ali housing onto the cast iron one. Separate them but take care not to damage the o-ring in between. Turn the ally housing approx. 90 degrees so it point upwards and assemble the two housings again.

The wastegate actuator needs to be moved, but this is only a matter of drilling and tapping a new set of bolt holes. Do it before you assemble the turbo...

Its easily enough done.
