hi guys. i got my mk4 golf 1.8t last month an it cme with the old k03 in the boot. the bloke i got it from

Well only way i know is to remove turbo inlet pipe and get a view/picture of the compressor(the fan seen when pipe is off)

The amount of fins is unique to the K03/k03s/k04 023

I don't actually know the difference on the k04 001 to k03s so cant tell you how many fins.

not sure if the tag on the turbo is visible? should be a blue metal tag in the turbo. if you can get a flash camera and try and get a picture of it, not sure what access is like on the mk4.

either way if its got the k04-001 on it, then awesome! get a nice exhaust if it aint already got one, decent filter, forge tip, bigger injectors (4bar fpr??) and then get it mapped! (by r-tech of course)

grab a forge tip from a motorsport company.

fpr is a fuel pressure regulator. its on the end of the injector rail. you can use your injector rail and i think you can use your fpr, will probs need some audi S3 injectors or similar. best of asking a tuning company, like R-Tech or some one on here to comfirm though.
