I should gain 40bhp extra maybe abit more

my qpeng gives me 200bhp in my mk1 golf with a k03.. With a k03s i should then get roughly 240bhp. I have heard these turbos can give up to 260bhp with the right set up.

Oh yeah turbos on order as of friday  :evil:

If your doing this you may as well use bigger injectors and take her to the magic 300  :lipsrsealed:  :laugh:
