Fitting a KO3s - TIP Hose
« on: 02 April 2012, 21:20 »
Hi
I just want to check if I need to get a different type of TIP hose to go with a KO3s turbo upgrade?  I figure I might as well go for a Forge TIP if I'm going to be fitting this to my 1.8T.

I see the only visible difference is the extra connection on it as I got the one with the extra bit but blocke it off with a bolt..... Does this mean I got the k03s tip???

Thought the k03 and k03s had different sizes where it goes onto the turbo??  :undecided:
