which k04 you getting, the proper one as there are two! If you get the audi tt 225bhp one new exhaust mani and airflow etc etc needed! Plus custom map! Would be mint though 280Bhp plus and bye bye standard clutch LOL

Thats the lower powered one if it bolts onto our manifold not much more power than our k03s just bit more higher up only up to 250bhp , but is an easy set up! more-bhp done it with the turbo you mention ask him, he running standard maf but its maxin out haha! You need 3" maf 4bar fuel press reg, new TIP for the maf, intercooler etc etc . but in my opinion if you rapacing all that you might as well get the bigger k04 and manifold of a tt and run higher power for about the same cost!! Think its K04-023

i was thinking before i went away of blowing some money on a IHI conversion, but thought holiday first....
.
.... so i went on holiday haha
so now i need to either save up again, or go the cheaper way! what power is more-bhp running now?!
cos surely with the FMIC etc etc with that K04 he can push 260+?!

ive always said i'd stop at 280!!
240-250 ok... but doesnt 260 sound better?!
i think its the 250bhp barrier lol
Polo GTi - 240bhp
doesnt cut it like
Polo GTi - 260bhp
see! only 20bhp in there! haha
