TF51 VRS - R Tech/BBT Hybrid K03 330/400

K04 (S3) injectors
Janner_Sy:
OK. Figures look awesome for a hybrid but whats the price on this turbo. By my reckoning it needs to be cheap to justify it over a K04.
A K04 can be had for around £750-1000 add some S3 injectors ontop just as is required for this hybrid turbo mated to your previous stage 2+ setup and you would be running a further 30-40Hp with proven solid reliability.
IUm struggling to see why you would choose this over a K04 £/bhp wise.
GarethB:
Figures & graph look lovely :happy2:
I wanna have a go on Mr Gower's dyno to compare to JKMs :happy2:

I see what you're saying and I'm not saying it's wrong, but there's definitely an argument for "Why not? Let's have a go and see what happens, it might just be good" after all, if we all did the same thing and never investigated anything new, the world would be a boring place and we'd never make any progress. Niki has already hinted on his Facebook page that if this is a success (and don't forget this is at R and D stage according to the header on the dyno chart) and performs well, this will be the best, easiest and cheapest upgrade for the TFSI, possibly suggesting that it will come in cheaper than a K04 conversion.
Janner_Sy:
It certainly needs to be cheaper though. It's a 30-40hp lower output.
That's like the difference between stage 1 and stage 2+
