AGU is cable operated throttle and a k03 turbo,AUM is drive by wire and has a k03s turbo.an AGU has stronger internals ull get 190 -200 bhp with a mapped agu,and 200-215 bhp with a mapped aum with standard turbo's.the engine code is on sticker under carpet in boot next to spare wheel or if u remove engine cover is stamped on front left hand side.

Put a k03s on an AGU cant go wrong same fitment,can hold boost a bit higher and for longer on a k03s.
