K03 Hybrid
lm_gauci:
When i had my 1.8T Ibiza having the turbo hybridized (sp) was a good alternative to going BT. Now i appreciate that the k04 can achieve good power over the ko3 but was just curious if anyone had hybrid thier k03 and what sought of power it puts out?
GrayMK5GTI:
This was discussed a while back and so far as I know, no one has done it. The K04 isn't crazy money and is the best solution. You could actually go K04 and keep original injectors and fuel pump for 300-310bhp. You would have to get a custom map though as this isn't a setup that Revo, APR etc support :happy2:
That's a cheap-ish boost in power

APR do.
they have a few options already developed for K04 conversions on the K03 TFSI.
It was APR who gave me the idea.
* K04 with S3 injectors, stock intake, stock exhaust, stock HPFP approx 300hp
* K04 with S3 injectors, Uprated APR HPFP, stock intake, stock exhaust, approx 320hp
* K04 with S3 injectors, Uprated APR HPFP, Intake, TBE and intercooler. approx 350Hp
Option 1 makes so much sense on the K03 TFSI as that 300Hp is cheaper than making a Stage 2+ K03 setup and it makes more power with less boost/stress. Wish i had known about it back alongwhen i had my octavia tbh.

I was just purely thinking away from the ordinary to be honest. Ideally we would all save money by going straight to a k04/BT set up etc but most people generally do things step by step. Intake, then remap and so on.
I was just thinking that if you had a ko3 gti with all stage 2 mods could a hybrid ko3 be a good option. If its not been done though i suppose it could end up being costly finding a good set-up.

That's intersting. What sort of cost would you be looking at for the K04 and S3 inectors? I'm assuming that 300bhp option 1 needs to include a remap as well as the hardware?
