Nothing past K04 yet, looks promising though, low comp & lots of fuel etc
Don't know about internal strengths though
vRSAlex:
I'm sure he won't mind us straying a little bit. All good info, even if we are giving loads away!
The 044 is a pig to get fitted into the original basket. Just the outer and lid left. I will try and find some pics. Had to squeeze it all into a xbow fuel tank. This xbow wasn't particularly laggy even with the gt3076 with the .80 housing and lower than normal comp pistons. 2 bar peak at just under 4k and held just under that to the limiter. Really easy to drive round the lag too. This was on a bwa I built too. l did read that the k04 heads are made of a slightly different alloy that can cope with higher heat, but nothing confirms that. Blocks just have more ribbing around the mains. The less strong 1.8t engine copes ok with big numbers.
An hta/gtx3071 should spool as fast as a hybrid k04 but flow as well if not better than the loba. :popcornsoda: Should cope with far more abuse too with metal caged bearings etc. Turbo will push an easy 500bhp at moderate boost.
Twin 044's on a race car or drag works ok, but as you say, they are no good in traffic.
I wish I had never sold my VEM's wideband and egt gauge from the ibiza. Would be nice to always see what's going on.
Looking forward to getting the wmi on the vRS. Racelogic traction control is also waiting to go on if I ever get time. Need to book a week's slot just get everything done tbh.

Mike, I didn't have a hybrid on mine, but Steve and Craig did and I saw most of the fitting and development they went through when running them. That's the benefit of living less than 4 miles away from a good tuning place. :happy2:

I can post up a Dyno graph of my old T-dynamics hybrid if anyone's interested, just bear in mind I still ran an Autotech rail + RS4 injectors and a walbro Lift pump to support the power, we ran over 400hp and more again when we fitted WMI.
All this was done and dusted over 2 years ago.
Revo have a 2+ file to support the fueling with this turbo now, I used a GIAC custom back then
You'll run out of fuel with stock injectors if you want more than 2+ power, if you try to tune the hybrid with the stock injectors and keep it safe it's not worth bothering with unless your only after 10-20 hp more but you'll not feel it at all.

Hi Steve,so does that mean I can pop into any revo dealer to get software to run this turbo dynamics md507 ko4 hybrid??
DaveB@Vagbremtechnic:
It's a little known fact that LOBA also sell a lot of tuning bits other than turbos, so speak to a LOBA dealer who'll get you prices injectors only.....that said they don't sell a lot of stuff over here due to shipping probably...
Worth asking the question though
