Uprated 1.8 Turbo Exhaust manifolds.

[Scott-R]

Where sells them i cant find any i want the one that comes up and curles back down... if that makes sense.

Also roughly stage 1 remap running 1.3 bar of boost, how much should it drop if any and is everyone else getting that boost through all gears or lower in 1st and 2nd?

thanks scotty

k03 turbo still?

I know relentless do a one for the k04, but never seen a k03 manifold before.  Not worth it really for a k03/s

If you have a k03/s then you only need a ported stock manifold . They flow enough for well over 300bhp . Unlike the stock k04 manifold which is shxt compared with the tubular xs power one

I have a Ko4-001. Relentless??? any links?

[Scott-R]

Would this one be the same as the relentless one???

Won't fit as its for longitudinal engines as in the a4.

Honestly your are fine with a ported stock manifold, really is no need for a tubular manifold for a k04-001 it will flow far more than the turbo can produce

[Scott-R]

i would be near 1.4-1.5 bar of boost, perhaps more surely thats worth getting the manifold?

K04-001 uses the k03 setup flanges.

My k03s pushed 250bhp on a stock manifold with no work.

[Scott-R]

I would like more than 250 though.. Ha

NIcks k04-001 was getting 300bhp with the balls absolutely pushed off it and water meth.  Id say between 250 and 270bhp for a very good running k04-00a setup with all the bolt ons.
