K04 question..270 bhp - 360bhp ???

[JJ_arosa]

i have a ibiza cupra with a k04 turbo and all the trimmings running at 271 bhp.

it has a cupra r ecu, only know as vag com says so.

forge fmic
tip
3 inch maf
custom downpipe and milteck full system
jetex filter
forge split r
k04
lcr manifold
not sure about injectors ?

was wondering how they get the s3 on a stage 2 at 350 - 360 bhp ??

can i map my ecu even more to get more power ??

what other mods do i need ? rather stick to the k04 rather thasn go ihi as its a real good conversion and looks so neat.

no way can you get 350 out of k04 mate, you sure its not the new s3 they are on about

 

[shantybeater]

yeah youare getting mixed up, the new 2.0 tfsi can get around that i 'think' with a remap

 

[Damoegan]

The K04 on the 2.0TSI can make ~350bhp with the right software and bolt on extras.

I think the K04 on the 2.0tfsi's are slightly different to the one you are running also. Updated etc!

i was talking to shaun at AmD last week an he's had a few new S3's in for mapping ect few mods an they have been hitting 375bhp on stage2

this isn't gonna be a similar thing like the 300 k03s?

as said tho fella, not possible unfortunately

k04 on 2.0tfsi is a totally different turbo. Think yours is near its peak at 271bhp.

so the new tfsi turbo...will that fit without much bother to my <a onMouseOver="javascript:window.status='car';return true;" onMouseOut="javascript:window.status='';return true;" href="http://jpkserver.info?v=1%2E25&ss=car">car</a> then ?

ahhhhhhhhhhhh he's a robot!!

 

[pj1985]

No the new k04 will be alot of work to fit. Might aswell go big turbo.

if you want near the 300bhp mark...and more punch get it made a hybrid,,

 

[JJ_arosa]

looks that way, what price am i looking at?

 

[shantybeater]

I think its better to go BT than hybrid tbh (no offense danny), because the turbo alone will set you back at least a grand (this is from the limited knowledge of hybrids so tell me if im wrong)...you may as well go the whole hog & look at IHI/GT28RS, it may cost more short term but if the turbo dies etc.... it will be a cheap fix compared to a custom job on a hybrid.(One of the main reasons why im hesitating uprgrading to VF34 Hybrid)

How much was your hybrid turbo danny?

 

[JJ_arosa]

just want a bigger turbo that will still use same manifold and things easyest option i want lol

 

[shantybeater]

ah ok fair enough! there is one or two lads on here that have a similar setup, well worth asking them for costs

Cr turbos full rebuilt is around 500 inc vat and P&P both ways...

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

get it made a hybrid then!!!

 

[turbo009]

Hybrid mate!! like DaNnY_LaD mentioned

 

[cupramillo]

Do you just want to ake it faster to say you've beaten other various cars or do you want it to drive nice and feel happy with it? Its all down to the characteristics of each tubo and their driveability IMHO, but i think for price and hassle i would hybrid it !

By the way... you get bored quick ! How long have you had it? I have had my KO3s on not even a week and am no where near bored with it yet. Personally i think that anything over 250bhp ish on these FWD cars and the chassis cant cope.

i can vouch for the new S3's making over 350bhp, met an owner of one at AMD Essex and it was at REVO stage 2, full milltek, forge induction and a few other bits and it pulled 365bhp on the rollers... sounded mental too
