If you look on .net Anto did a fairly good write up on how he did his, I did similar.
I took a gt15 manifold, made an adapter plate to bolt to it, which the turbo then bolted to. Exhaust side, I've seen people using the standard elbow mounted on a adapter plate to fit the td04. I went completely custom and welded up my own elbow, this probably isn't ideal. Oil lines, I used standard oil line, with just an adapter to fit it into the td04. Threads on it are something like m10, whereas k14 etc is m12. Oil return is handy enough.
Overall, I took a bit of time making up the brackets etc, then fitting it went badly 'cos I my exhaust adapter wasn't 100% and had no welder, had a few clearance issues, and still have an, as yet undiagnosed, annoying rattle!

Gov modded 11mm Bosch + Standard turbo = 137.2bhp . . . . TD04 now in...time to get playing!
