the difference??? over 100hp lol!

before you look at strapin on a bigger turbo, get your basics and bolt ons looked after... Intake/chip/Exhaust/Front mount intercooler... its all stuff you'll need when you go bigger...

Get those things look after then i'll tell ya everything you need to know

nope... the turbos on the audi engines sit opposite as they do on the VW engines

This is the K04 that you have... K04-001
few questions 53049500001

This is the K04 he needs... K04-015

I'm baffled...I can't tell the difference...can you tell the difference scratch

Subject: Re: few questions Tue Sep 22, 2009 11:02 am

different housings

See how the K04-001 attaches to the exhaust manifold...
few questions K04_Manifold_1

That elbow on the compressor side comes up and over the exhaust manifold to connect to the pipe that runs along the back of the engine.
few questions 18T_HeatDef_1

Also, the Downpipe connects in a different way.. on the K04-001... it faces downward... on the K04-015 it faces the back of the car

I can't really find any pics of the Audi 1.8t... but i'm sure you know it sits front to back in the engine bay instead of sideways like in the Jetta...

Anyway... you don't have to take my word for it... i've only been working on the fucking things since 2003

correct. cause the turbo you showed is the one im looking for.

but like i said im not looking for nothing wild so i could deal with the 100 less horse power. also saving 2000

the awe kit comes with a GIAC chip.also you can upgrade the kit for injectors which are included and a front mount sold speratly.

what kind of exhaust?sould i just go online and watch videos till i hear what i like?

Subject: Re: few questions Tue Sep 22, 2009 11:55 am

if your looking at buying all these mods at once, your best bet would be to call AWE and see if you can't get some type of package price... they'd know best what exhaust works well with there kit

I'd defintily look into getting the injector file with that K04

ya they have a link right on the site for the exhaust upgrade.

whats this injector file you speak of?

it makes u do crazy shit like this....

few questions Body-surfing

Subject: Re: few questions Tue Sep 22, 2009 12:53 pm

the borla system includes a downpipe, so that'd be the one i'd be looking at... the injector file i refer to is the PC16 upgrade offered for the AWE K04 kit... but it looks like it may only be available for manuals

Subject: Re: few questions Tue Sep 22, 2009 1:16 pm

hahahahahahah !!

fuck....

well either way the total cost for the kit, engine chip, tip chip,full exhaust would be around 3000 shipped to ma door. but i have to send my computer away so they can do this. would it be easier to find a spare and just use that one?

so im thinkin if and when i paint my bumper i wonder if it'll match. on the other hand im just thinkin fuck it and re paint the whole car satin black.

result similar to this

Subject: Re: few questions Mon Oct 12, 2009 12:06 am

if you can make the black come out smooth and then clear coat it somehow to still look satin, that'd be mint.
