ko3s change??? Silicone hoses

[grangie123]

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.

well this one werent about 8mm bigger external bore than the original, this turbo has ko3 052/3 (not sure which as cant remember) code on where as the original i believe was ko3 026???

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
