You should be. Most guys here in the states only need a Forge w/oem fmic for a K04 upgrade. I went ahead and added a S3 fmic w/forge just b/c, and in the summer the two cool air temps from 31C to 18 or 19C during a 3rd gear data run 3k rpm to 7k rpm. I have 340hp.

Extra weight though  :sad1:

I have just the alloy S3 one and works fine at stage2+... Really not that hard to fit.

Yes, when you order they just need to know what you have. They include everything to hook it up.
