k03/k04....should i?
i recently aquired a k03/k04 turbo for free, along with some other misc ---- for it
i will be boosting my stock D16A6 shortly and since i got a free turbo i figued why not use it. eventually i would like to use a T3 super 60, but my idea was to buy a manifold for a T3 and make an adapter for the K03/k04 so i dont have to buy 2 mani's. everyone has told my this turbo is too small an doesnt have any top end, but i am not understanding if you can make over 200hp on a 1.8l why would it be too small for a 1.6? here are the specs from the car it cam off of Engine Code AWM Displacement 1.8L (1781cc) Cylinders 4 Valves per cylinder 5 Bore diameter 81.0 mm (3.19 in.)

"improvements" to keep the 1.8Ts output from encroaching on that of the V6. - 2001.5-current Passat |
