transverse is what we have dude..

if its transverse it should fit, if its longitude...it wont, this is because the exhaust outlet exits to the side instead of downwards meaning that the downpipe wont mate to it. amongst other fitment issues

 

[20v_turbo]

so will it fit and is it a K03S

 

[Forbez]

Yeah Sorry, thanks for correcting me Carl, just realised this while i was out, glad someone corrected me.

Doh!

also, though im not 100% sure, i think if the last letter was an A not B it would be a K03 turbo could you get the KKK part number (like k03 023 xxxx) instead of what you have listed which is the VW one?

otherwise just wait an see if anyone can confirm what Tom has said

 

[20v_turbo]

ko3-035 i think

 

[JIMYU]

not sure a k03-035 is k03s...you sure its not a k03-053? that is a k03s.

the turbo you mention is from a 180bhp TT so I'd say it is a k03s personally.

just contacted volkswagen, this turbo is K03 not k03s.

there's a bargain to be had there, but its a bit of a gamble...I wouldn't buy it anyway.

I found the better k03s buys are on ebay.com. posting a turbo from US is only $60. Got mine for £110 delivered.

 

[acidstrato]

had my suspicions but weren't sure

doh!

For the part number earlier, the BW part number is 5303 988 0035 so i'd say thats a KO3s.

How cheap are we talking mate?
