Hi all,

Was just having a look on the turbo technics site and seen there hybrid turbo for the 1.8t and was wondering if any one has one fitted or heard of anyone with one?

If its the one I'm thinking they are meant to push to 260bhp, have heard of some of these by the 300 mark with uprated pump. They has a lightened and redesigned compressor with a 360angle bearing, might be also worth talking to:

Turbo Dynamis (UK Based)
Turbonetics (USA, but alot of engineering work and specialise in IC's)

That sounds not to bad for what they want for them £565+vat!!! (plus your old turbo)

I take it you would need a custom remap? what else though? FMIC, filter, exhaust, bigger injectors???

is it a K03(s) - K04 hybrid? (K04 internals in a K03)

Doesn't sound worth it TBH. With a R-Tech custom map people on here have seen 240bhp+ with AGU/K03s + Mods...

There is a K03(s) Hybrid which uses the internals of a K04 but i know you need a new map and maybe Various other bits as if you had a K04 (injectors, MAF etc etc. The usual). From a place like AMD Its a rip-off though lol
