Or maybe one of the archives is broken, these are the correct file sizes:
178.751.648 TGW11a-1.bin
179.300.000 TGW11a-2.bin
179.300.000 TGW11a-3.bin
179.154.367 TGW11a-4.bin
547.845 TGW11a.exe

So the file is apparantly corrupt from the Grey wolves download?? Or is it a problem with the Game file

When the installer installs a file, it performs a checksum comparison against that recorded when the file was first added to the installer (ie when I compiled it).
If the checksum differs, you get a message stating that the file is corrupt. With LZMA compression, if one file gets corrupted, then every file after that point becomes inaccessible (even though subsequent files may not be corrupted). It's a side effect of getting super-small d/l files.
Basically, your d/l of TGW11a-1.bin (at least) is corrupt. Have you compared the file size of your files to those outlined by Gizzmoe? If they differ, then this is definately the problem...but also remember that even if the byte size is the same, it does not mean that your files are OK.
This may seem frustrating now, but with the "old" installation method you wouldn't realise you had an installation problem until your game CTD...and then you'd spend hours tearing your hair out trying to find where the problem was.
BTW, I can't speak for any alternate d/l locations, but the files available at Subsim (which have the file sizes as quoted by Gizzmoe) are NOT corrupted. To be sure I just d/l and tried it (ahhh Subsim host plus fast broadband = :rock:)
