brakes, suspension, engine mounts, intercooler, uprated boost hoses, decent filter and obviously uprated dv.

My choice would be a gt28rs, a comfortable 300 with room for more if you ever go as far as upgrading the engine internals. IHI turbos are also a popular choice.. probably because you can pick them up for peanuts from subaru owners who are upgrading to a td06 or something.

at that price, that turbo will be a chinese copy and not a genuine borg warner KKK unit. Naughty really because the one in the pictures IS a genuine one, with the part# tag on it.. the one they send you won't be like that, the numbers will be stamped onto the turbo housing.

Only way to find out is maybe give them a call, but like topher says its more likely to be a copy. Audi forums are a good place to find K04-001's as they were fitted to mk1 Audi TT's
