TE04 is only the exhuast side specification for the turbo. What is the inlet
side? 10A? 8A. I have a Conquest TSI (2.6l I4) and the factory mitsu trubo
for those was a 12A-TDO5. Look at the inlet housing and see what the first
part is.
The TD vs TE is the design of the exhuast housing and the ## part is the size
of the exhuast housing. A mildly modded 2.6l can be choked by an 05 housing
so I imagine a 04 housing will be pretty restrictive on an 2.5l
