ko3s turbo - asisstance please

[DaveA3]

Hi all,

Firstly is this turbo any good?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-G...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

Also is it a reasonable diy? as id like a go myself.

IS there anything else thats needed? pipes etc.

After installing should i see about 220bhp from a remap on my 150 agu?

many thanks in advance

I wouldn't touch that K03S with a 10 metre cattle prod personally - chinese dodgy 'I'm going to blow up' version.

The swap is a reasonable DIY yes - there is a good guide somewhere and I will see if I can fish it out.

I know someone who is selling a K03S - low mileage, with a non cracked manifold!

No, same mani, just useful to have a spare.

Fineese: i was waiting for someone to say that! lol

ive had it for ages on 2 diff audis. ive mounted it high up in the bumper and i have a filter sock to prevent further. Im gonna make a lil water resistant gauze type thing for the open part at the bottem too.

i may just cut the pipe but who knows.

Welly:
