Turbo recon

[krisbutler02]

right seeing as there isnt any decent 100% good k03s turbos about

how much would it cost to get a cheapo one reconditioned

and where from?

 

[s1l3nc3r]

ive seen repair kits on the bay but as for how good they are i wouldnt no...have you tried scrapies see if you can source anything from a scraped donor car...

 

[CupraElliott]

Why not just get some hybrid treatment for £600? You would pay the same for a reconditioned KO3s, brand new from SEAT there £1300!

Just what I was told off someone who bought a reconditioned one.

 

[cuprachrissy]

like elliot said (if you have the £££) then hand in an old k03/03s and give them 600 big ones, then youll have a nice 270+bhp! but there are the extra costs like maps etc. look around edition38 n vag websites for a k03s too

 

[krisbutler02]

do i need new injectors , fuel pump , maf n all that?

who does the maps?

 

[CupraElliott]

In a nutshell, yes.

Lots of places do the maps. You need a custom map or stage 3.

 

[krisbutler02]

probs work out to much really 600 quid + map is gunna be 1k at least lol

 

[CupraElliott]

Possibly 2k if you take into account a decent brake setup.

 

[krisbutler02]

i got brembos

 

[krisbutler02]

what injectors and other bits do i need lcr ones?

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

The Price it would take for you to rebuild a K03s It wouldnt be far off the Hybrid treatment..

does it use the k03/k03s tip?

 

[krisbutler02]

and what filter is that as i have a jetex one

 

[CupraElliott]

Jetex will be fine aslong as it's rated to around 300bhp.

It is actually the same ko3s turbo, but with different internals, but it uses a k04 size outlet so you need an S3 TIP. It's slightly bigger than ours.

 

[krisbutler02]

dam it just bought this tip aswell

 

[CupraElliott]

You will easily be able to sell it to fund the new one.

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

No a K03/k03s Outlet Is 40mm odd

When its hybrid its a 51mm Outlet so a k04 tip will work...Or my ATP one in the sale section lolzz/...

As for a air filter Jetex one id recommend..

 

[krisbutler02]

with a lcr tip do i need 2 move anything
?
