Could have the chance of some parts off my mates S3 speaking engine and power terms not really much idea about it just he mention some parts are straight swap and make alot of difference to performance! Any of you fine chaps shed some light on this with figures and reliability issues etc etc? Thanks

you'll also need the MAF and will need a 4bar fuel pump from a Seat Leon Cupra R

the K04-023 from a S3 does not fit... the in/outlet of the turbo are opposite of oure turbo's.
and there is not enough room to fit them.

injectors etc could be used, but be sure they are 100% otherwise it can give you alot of misery :wink:

Alot of people saying that the abs is in the way when fitting the ko4! Does anybody have contact details to someone that has actually fitted the turbo to our polos?? I've just recently put a milltek turbo back on my car would putting the turbo on mean i have to change the down pipe??

Yes you would have to change the down pipe.

They guys having problems with the ABS are left hand drive.

It will fit our right hand drive car no problem at all.
