Ko4 hybrid turbo

[Haughan]

Is the ko4 hybrid an easy swap from ko3s and what manifold do people reckomend thinking of ordering one soon just want to be sure that I order the right stuff rather than finding out half way threw the job

Speak to bill at badger5 or go into his page on here

Which k04 are you making a hybrid out of?
K04-023? K04-001?

 

[Haughan]

Not sure on which one it is to be honest I spoke to cr turbos about the ko3 hybrid and they reckonmended that I went for a ko4 hybrid instead if I am looking for the 300bhp mark

 

[David_smith_909]

k04-023 it will be
k04-001 is basically a k03s

willl need manifold, turbo, tip, larger maf housing, dp, injectors, map - decent intercooler (off the top of my head, prob a few more things)

dp will probably need to be custom, everything else you can pretty much get off the suppliers on here (LCR Fitment - unless the suppliers do a kit for the ibiza)

hope this helps

and rods...

And wmi to keep egt down !

The k04 puts out a lot of heat imo. You will need to moddifie the water pipes to get the tip to sit nice and you can buy a dp from qpeng for the conversion

Am running ko3s now with three inch down pipe 100cell sports car s3 injectors bmc air filter forge front mount and stage 2 revo oh and 2.5 inch jetex cat back an yeh rods and diff are on the cards so think I just need tip s3 maf housing can anyone reckonmend a manifold as don't really want to rush into buying one and it bein pants

 

[chriscupra02]

The k04023 is different fittment to any k03 turbo. The manifold has to be change the doownpipe has to be changed and the tip. Iv done the conversion have a look on my rr

 

[chriscupra02]

And the maff housiing and bigger injectors

 

[Haughan]

I have read some on another thread that the hybrid fits the same down pipe I will ring cr turbos and ask to confirm tho

 

[chriscupra02]

if they are talking about a k04001 then it will fit your mani and dp but the proper k04023 wont. i dont understand why they would sugest to you the hybrid k04001 as that is basicly a ko3s hybrid you would get the same figures.

Not sure they said the ko3 hybrid will get me around the 280bhp mark and if I want to make 300bhp I need to go for the ko4 hybrid I need to get a few more details from them I think as don't want to spend my time and money fitting it if I am not going to make 300

 

[chriscupra02]

You would make 300 on a proper k04 hybrid as I was looking into doing this. It will cost you a far bit more to do this conversion over the sake of 20bhp.

 

[Haughan]

Can I not make 280bhp on a ko3 hybrid tho

 

[jay-cupra]

yes 280bhp is possible with WMI

 

[chriscupra02]

I thought if you got the top spec stage 4 hybrid k03 300bhp was possible anyway

 

[Haughan]

Cr turbos told me that the ko3 will get me around the 280bhp mark which is now starting to sound like a better option to be honest now
