K04 HELP please some one :S

[rockmonkey69]

On 1.8t originally fitted with ko3/s you also need to bend the pipe that runs alongside the block and feeds to the hoses for the heater matrix.
The ko4-023 has an egt bung on the housing and needs to be blocked up because our 1.8t golfs don't have egt sensor for the turbo.
You should also try and get ahold of the oil and water feed/returns from a 225tt, s3 or lcr, took me some time to source my parts for the ko4 upgrade on my AUM, got quite the bargain and thats the only reason Im going for the upgrade... honest  
Managed to source a rebuilt ko4-023 fitted with ko4-022 housing with no egt bung, manifold, oil and water feeds/returns, 3" maf, s3 injectors for about £400 just made an offer for the dp and 3" intake pipe and waiting for an answer now. After that it's just an LCR fuel pump I need to source for my build.

After that no more power mods for me... except for the ecs lightweight pulley kit...

Also nathan.golf s3 injectors will fit into aum straight on, the s3 fuel pump will need modding to work properly in golf and no generally a 4 bar fpr is not needed for this! But a more precise answer is: it depends on your tuner.

what else would u advise? for that sensor hole could i get it welded up

only thing its second hand of s3 so i duno about the conditions so just enquiring

[rockmonkey69]

Essentially that's pretty much it, you also need a turbo intake pipe for the ko4 as it's slightly larger intake than the ko3s. As for welding up the egt hole, I guess you could but it's a pretty large hole really and it would have to be quite a substantial weld and quite strong. Better just to change the housing or bung it up with an egt sensor but not connected obviously.

oh yes that would be the best option lol, well cheers i think im going to buy it now pal. thanks for help.
btw what turbos on ur car?

[Nathan.golf]

one more thing, what intake pipe should i use? i see them silicone ones samco i think make is would they work or is there a different one?

the K04-001 offers more than just 10bhp, it makes the torque more sustainable, better spool up and with good supporting mods could make upto 20bhp more than a k03s.

just what i read on vortex,

I got a ko3s on mine at the moment.
As for the turbo intake pipe, you should upgrade and get one of them silicon ones when you go ko4, theres definately gains to be had, not much but it's there, doesn't matter which one you go for to be honest because the gains aren't massive and there's little difference between them.
