I was looking at the t4 replica turbo on eBay , but before I put it on, have it rebuilt with good parts ?

doesn`t that just totally defeat the point of buying a cheap turbo?.

Not when the turbo costs 300 quid and I know where will do it for 200 quid and a genuine ones well over a grand, so saving at least 500 quid

I have had no issues with cheap turbos, on of my customers AGU is running an £150 ebay T304e now at 424bhp (500bhp with nos)  and was the 1/4 quickest mk4 2wd in the UK 12.3s @ 123mph

I have one waiting to go on my car.. :wink:

I want as much as I can get power as possible really, you day that after 350 bhp they start bending rods, I's it possible to just change the rods and run 400bhp ?? Internal wise I mean

I thought they was only good for 300bhp the lower powered 1.8t's. Why dont you get your turbo hybrided, gets you to around 270-280bhpish. Think it costs a bit though like 2k, £600 turbo £600 odd mapping then rest for other k04 powered parts (injectors etc forgot the rest!) Then get an lsd.

Would that be an Lsd tab??
