That's cheating! lol! What are you getting machined? You going for a larger compressor/turbine? Or are you sticking with the K04 cold side and the K03 hot?

Let me know how you get on after you get this mapped! I've had to volunteer for a 4 months of living in the field to finance getting mine sorted!(my car is pretty much standard atm, need a lot of supporting mods!) Can't find a billet 2275 compressor wheel anywhere, so its just a K04-023 coldside and a K04-001 hot for me, I don't really trust the metal benders in my battalion to do any machining!

So you having the K03s intake cut and shut onto the K04 intake? Effectively a K04 but with K03 4stud downpipe fitment?

Seriously got me thinking now as I could probably get this done at work...

Just found out that billet turbos are making ball bearing CHRA's and compressor wheels for K04's, I've sent them a mail, could be interesting!!! Any one interested in a group buy?

I'm hoping to have mine finished this month wallet depending so I guess I could do a write up with pics once its done, still waiting on an email back from scroll turbo's or billetturbochargers to see if they'll supply me with the compressor wheel I want. Unless any one on here knows where I can get a 2277 or 2280 ETT compressor wheel from? I'm finding that most of the hybrid building companies are unwilling to supply individual parts.
