A5 turbo upgrade

[SteveBAM]

Hi guys, I have a 2014 A5 Quattro with a Gen 3 2.0t TFSI engine (CNCD). It has the IHI is20 turbo and I was wondering if a is38 turbo would be a direct bolt on? Has anyone tried this?
Thanks in advance.

I have the same engine in mine and have looked into this a bit.The IS38 is unfortunately designed for the transverse engines in the golfs,s3,ETC where the turbo is behind the engine.
There is a company that supplies an upgrade to the turbos on the longitudinal engines like ours but the costs are quite high.
