Paradox1:
Okay I'm a bit confused now as I think you have a turbo fetish.
So you went from k03, to hybrid and now your on k04?

:signLOL:
Yes I've had K03 and then hybrid K03 on my AXX lump
Now I've bought a BWJ lump from a cupra R that's has the K04 as standard and then i'm putting an anti surge wheel in that turbo. So its not a hybrid K04 but its somewhere between hybrid and stock.

Just do a GTX3071R build and be done with it! :laugh:

OI, that's enough out of you :laugh: :laugh:
Would love it, but then its 4WD time and since I can't do any labour it would cost me a bomb then that's when I would finally give up and get an RS3/ TTRS.
TAPPY:

The car is booked in at AKS on May 25th - 28th for the following
To the BWJ engine:
. check and if needed replace cam chain
. runner flap delete
. injector refurbish
. oil pick up change
. carbon clean
. pressure test and boroscope work
. RS4 FPRV
. cambelt and water pump
. turbo check over
. anti surge wheel fitted :evilgrin:
. all mods from old engine moved over
Then remove the old one and fit the BWJ lump, also fix a few little niggles and maybe a new MAF sensor to hopefully have the car running as it should for more than 10 minutes
So this should leave me with a pretty well sorted engine capable of some serious performance and most of all some realiability :pomppomp:
But for now she's resting as I don't think it will last the 4 weeks.
Tried to get an artsy photo with the dog and my car next to each other but my phone is useless in strong light and the dog doesn't look to pleased :laugh:
For now I have this beast
I barely fit in it but its a free car so I should stop complaining.
Also I realise this has almost become more of a blog than a build thread but tough, you just have to put up with it :innocent:

Is that your Mazda then dan or are you borrowing it? I went to elite the other week and saw it outside but didn't think you was there as I didn't see your golf
