brrman, just curious, how much did ur tubo up grade set you back? and what turbo did you get?
Was there any other mods you did or had to do when getting the new turbo?

cheers

 

dude - I don't have a turbo upgrade. One is coming this summer, but right now I am only chipped.

If you want to check out an upgrade kit go here:
AWE Tuning

its the most widely used and most trusted turbo upgrade for the 1.8T but im sure if you wanted to spend an extra $5K you could find a better setup<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

 

There are a few turbo upgrade possibilities. 5 years ago (the K04 was designed about 20 years ago keep in mind) the K04 was the best available - but now there are some better options, although more expensive.

APR offers a different turbo (Garrett GT25) in their StageIII kit and it delivers more hp. Their kit also adds an exhaust manifold and other things not included in the AWE kit.

Hell, you could even put a supercharger on a 1.8 now.

 

Yup thatd be the $5K turbo kit im talkin bout. well $4500 exactly.</P>


ive been drooling over this kit for a long time at http://goapr.com </P>


Hey BrrMan can I borrow $5K<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">?</P>

 

dude, if I had $5K it would be spent already, and I would be cruising at 120 mph....<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0">
