The 1.8T 190 has a K03s turbo as standard which is capable of around 230bhp when mapped.
Is there any benefits of changing to a K04 turbo before i get a remap done?? I know there wont be massive gains but is it reccomended? The reason i ask because i might be able to get hold of a K04 quite...
Ive had a quick look on ebay for A4 1.8T 190 and there seem to be quite a few that are not selling.
I checked the completed listings, and only one has sold been sold at a price of £7250. The rest have had no bids or reserves has not been met.
Why is it a hard time to get to sell these...
Yeah, the graph is for a K04 turbo, TT injectors and remap. I was looking at Audizine and they say you need a manifold. Many are people are running big turbo's on the stock manifold.
250bhp will be enough, FMIC are too expensive.

The main reason is of price. The 190 Sport are around 2003 go for £8.5-9.5k and the s-line are around the £10k mark. The 2004...
I was also looking into this but i could not find anyone that supplied the bracket. Bira.org said they could manufacture them but will cost $900 which is way too expensive.
I would also like to know if you get hold of some.
Im in the same position as you. Im also after a 1.8T and have a budget of around £7300. I was going to get a 163 but i think a 190 Sport is a better bet as it already has the S-line kit, wheels, sport seats, etc
And it has a better engine, as it has twin intercoolers, bigger turbo and...
