he said it is a straight swap on all k04 standard turbos. sounds too good to be true.
i know i will have to faff on with putting the cats back on mot time. any thoughts?
cheers rob

[robbie282]

i know thats what i was thinking. is ita bitch to fit? i know its only like 6 bolts but i cnt imagine it beeing simple.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if your wanting that for an S3 K04 I dont think it will fit. Downpipe looks like its the wrong angle totally. It needs to be a 90 degree bend off the turbo then down. And in answer to your other question, Yes they are a bitch to fit. Really awkward to get at the bolts on the turbo, And I dropped the sub frame and steering rack to get my old one off. Hope this helps.

Nope this one is ***** and will not fit. Showed my exhaust people the same one this week and he said it won't go on. Doesn't even look like it's meant for the S3. It's a shame because the only ones left are the Pipewerx ones for £300!!

Get a custom one doen and do cash in hand, sure you can get a good price,

 

[robbie282]

wel there is a pipewerx on ebay for 300 without cat and 475 with one. will it be any cheaper than that also where would i get it made up at? rob
