Can I push my K03 any further?

[Stanley]

I have an AGU with a remap, Apexi CAI, decat, and full Scorpion system.

Is it worth spending any more money on stuff while i still have this turbo?

FMIC?
N/A Cams?
N75J/H?

Cheers all!

I'm no expert on the K03 but from what i've read, you want to make your next mod the K03s. This will get you over 200bhp with the right mods. The K03 can only flow so much.

I would, but from what i can see, its a ****ing ballache haha

Not as much of a ballache as spending loads of cash and not getting any more power

what he has should see close to 200bhp. k03s and and fmic to keep cooling steady should be 220ish bhp. some more.

its a straight swap i believe

A ballache to fit a K03S??

No, no, no it just isn't. It's a few bolts and a couple of gaskets. Seriously, it really is not a hard job.

You want a ball ache, try changing a K04 turbo.

Fitting a K03s will make a noticeable difference believe me, a much more efficient turbo all round.

K03 turbos blow. No pun intended.

Here is a how to guide for it:

k03 > k03s Turbo DIY / Fitting Guide (Mk4 Golf) - uk-mkivs

The guide shows how to do it from the bottom, I did mine from the top years ago now, not sure which way is easier.

as said above, no point in doing anything further with the ko3 at all, you won't gain a thing.

spend £250 ish on sticking a ko3S on it, THEN add an FMIC and custom map, and the difference will be night and day!
