K03 Turbo - Chromey - 10-10-2006 Worth picking up? Or is it too small? Its very cheap cause its got a blown waistgate that needs to be replaced. K03 Turbo - kamilk69 - 10-10-2006 what are the specs on the turbo, if its dirt cheap with no shaft movement then i say pick it up. as for the internal wastgate, just weld it shut and run a 38mm external K03 Turbo - ZX3TUNING - 10-10-2006 on a 2L you will max out a K03 around 220fwhp give or take 15-20fwhp. would spool like a motherf***er but will run out of steam at the top of the powerband. would be a really good turbo if you were going to limit yourself to 200fwhp and a stock redline on a stock motor. you'd get great responce for AutoX... as for the wastegate issue, you could fix it but i agree that welding it shut and running an external 38mm tial or similar would allow for better function. if you replace the internal, later you could always upgrade to a K04 that a lot of the 1.8T VW/Audi guys are running... K03 Turbo - Chromey - 10-11-2006 Ive already gotten rid of the Stock Tune, (SCT Chip) So if i rev past a VWs range will i cook this turbo fast? 200 WHP Is great for me, But i want a safe motor too. K03 Turbo - Flofocus - 10-13-2006 If your going the junker route, Id say pick up a td05, you can find some nice ones in real good shape. I think the k03 is rated at 350cfm, the td05 is 400. 9psi tuned, you'll make 200whp, and more in torq. Or get something like this, new to. And cheap!
