Think you'll need a new ex. manifold to fit a K03S to an AEB engine mate.

 

[ALPINE]

isit?? thought they were a direct replacment?

dunno.. cheers 4 the heads up any ways, ill look into it!

 

[Lee Goodall]

Yeah, think the exhaust turbine is bigger.. needs a bigger housing/manifold. I could be wrong though.

 

[ALPINE]

if im gonna tit about like that i may as well get a ko4

 

[Blue_Thunder]

That's the spirit!

[Lee Goodall]

Yes mate liking your style

 

[aragorn]

Doesnt the turbo simply bolt to the manifold? the Longitudinal K03's dont have combined manifold/turbine housing assys like some of the other fitments so the larger turbine shouldnt matter as the housing will come with the new turbo?

Unless they changed the mounting flange, but i kinda doubt that?

Sorry I do just mean the exhaust/hot side turbine housing as you said the turbo does on AEB engines bolt up to the manifold so as long as the flange is the same it will fit.. but some turbos are supplied without the exhaust turbine housing so you need to make sure that it will mate with your existing one.

 

[Broken Byzan]

ko3 s is a direct bolt on, provided its for an A4 or passat long engine layout etc

 

[auroan]

yup an a3 turbo won't fit an a4 engine

 

[stapo69]

If something breaks, replace it with something bigger, more powerful, better and stronger!

 

[SonicDeathmonkey]

You can have the one off the left hand side of my engine. The way I see it, if I run with only one turbo, on the right hand side, I should save some money on petrol....

who supplies turbos without turbine housings?

 

[ALPINE]

many thanks to dappadan786 seems my turbo problems will be sorted come this weekend!

thanks again dude!

 

[aragorn]

jcb: some cars have the turbine housing integrated into the exhaust manifold; the Vauxhall C20LET and Z20LET/LEH for instance have this.

So i guess in those cases if you were to buy a new turbo it would come without the housing/manifold...

no probs fella, happy to help you out.

Just looked at your Sig and you have all the bit's on with a custom remap yet you have not started a thread with your results

hi Doc, its ben bad experiences after another! things just went wrong from when i placed that large order with ECS Tuning, i had 3 lots of faulty flywheels sent. when the correct was finally sent. i had boost leaks due to having the wrong pipes sent with the intercooler! then found a leak in the ATP exhaust manifold.

ive barely had anytime to sort it out and its kinda sat there. ive got the car opened up im replacing all gaskets(exhaust mani, inlet mani, rocker) just replaced the crank breathercase pipes inc the T pipe and checking over any other Vacuum pipes.

also getting misfire under boost, at moment nothings showing up on VAGCOM. so im gonna replace the cheapest items first. crankshaft sensor, ignition control module and last coilpacks!

its been a bumpy ride but im hoping to get there soon, im doing all the work myself at the moment with limited time.

Wow, you have been unlucky.

Scroll Products offer the option of reusing your old exhaust turbine housing to save on cost (which I did). My old one was in good condition so I just cleaned it up.

If you were changing to a turbo that required a different exhaust turbine housing from standard you would obviously need to buy the housing too.
