Just changed my k03s on my lc as the old one died, the old turbo was different to the new one i put on though and slightly larger intake bore.
Problem i have is i now want silicone hoses and am not sure what i want as my engine code is APP but the bore will be different for the TIP assumingly. Please help!
A very confused cupra owner!!

AFAIK all k03s (and k30) turbos have the same size intake.

8mm!! It might be a hybrid then. I'm sure they use something like the housing from a RS4 turbo when they get hybrid treatment.

thats cos the original was a K03 and you have replaced it with a K03Sport
