Lots of people on here have said it can't be done without notching the top of the chassis rail below the turbo or fitting a different inlet manifold. I was talking to a local Land-Rover specialist a few days ago about fitting 200Tdi engines into series Land-Rovers. He favours fiting the turbo upside down onto the manifold because it makes the exhaust pipework easier and unclamping the compressor housing from the rest of the turbo and rotating it so that the output port faces upwards before reclamping. I realized that a consequence of doing this is that the turbo would sit higher up which gives loads more clearance between the turbo and chassis - So much that I think it would go into a 109" which has a deeper chassis section in this area.
