You'll get more from a front entry one, but believe even a good one will run out of puff at 350bhp.

I think he means the turbo inlet pipe on a td05 is normally top entry,going into a 90 degree angle into the turbo,where as the later cars had a straight front entry pipe like on the td04,but a lot of people have the td05 converted to front entry so they dont have to change there existing pipework

You can recreate the top-entry bend with a 90deg silicone with I.D. of 58mm dia. and an ally joiner pipe with an O.D. of 58mm.
