    Yes it can be done, but you need to use ABY/ADU pressure pipe. There might be a tweak or two with the hose that connects turbo to intercooler. Someone else has definitely BTDT in this way. I think its a better setup as there are less hose joins on the ABY vs 3B so its fundamentally more robust.

        Get the ABY pressure pipe first - cannot be done without that piece... Actually better to try and get the later plastic pipe as it doesn't heat up anything like as much as the metal one.
