K03s fitting
« on: 27 June 2012, 12:58 »
Hi all,

I am getting all the parts needed to fit my K03s over the next few days, I am fairly competent when it comes to repairs and what not, but I dont want to risk doing a Turbo especially as its an expensive bit of kit and if done wrong can bugger my car.

Is there anyone within a Manchester area that fancies fitting / help fitting for lots of beer tokens?
ARZ K03s, Oettinger Side Skirts, R32 front, Carbon stage 2, Forge 007p (yellow spring), Forge Actuator (yellow spring), Pipercross panel filter with DSG parts, N249 and N112 deleted, SAI deleted, Carbon canister deleted, Rear wiper deleted, Long Life turbo back custom exhaust with 200 cell sports cat, VR6/G60 clutch kit, Creation Motorsport TIP, Catch can, 'Wellycooler', K04 charge pipe, S3 ported inlet manifold - looks pretty standard on the outside though :)

I didnt take mine off as I couldnt be bothered undoing every nut.
It can be done without removing the mani mate.
