Looks good!
Need to add a k03s to the list of mods  :cool:
Unlikely it is 200bhp on standard turbo thought
But Fsh is good!   :cool:

Have fun!

197bhp is achievable on a KO3, and JKM's dyno is pretty accurate.

Looks a good base and sounds like you've got some good plans :afro:

I know 200bhp is achievable but I though that was the max flow and stage 1 figures were more like 180bhp??

Well few changers here and there, I have fitted my mk5 rear wiper, also someone robbed my vw badge but got a new one back on now. I have fitted my new gear stick, got rid of the wood one lol, also I was told my DV valve was the wrong way around so changed that, also I not removed all my engine covers to find the dip stick tube snapped, so off to gsf tomoz for a new one.





All engine covers removed


The broken tube in question


I now plan on getting another AGU head and cleaning it up spraying it and fitting it, at the same time ill replace the head gasket. On my shopping list is to order some sps hoses next as the black ones look err lol

Thanks for looking
