Maybe someone who has a high end K03s and someone else with a K04 can settle this
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 :)

Build the engine it can always be put into something else or get a decent electronic boost controller and you can set it to run lower boost or gradual boost in lower gears.

Or just drive it properly? An LSD helps too.  :evil:
I don't get wheel spin unless its really wet or icy. The snow is fun!  :wink: :grin:
I do go through tyres a bit quicker than the last car (stage 2 ibiza cupra). A set of eagle f1s last about 15-20k miles (mix of motorway and backroads).  
I reckon a well tuned k03s or k04 is just as fun though, especially on the road. Personally I would like a ride ina  k04 car to compare with. thats the route I would probably go if I were do do it now.

Or save the £££ and get an RS4. Had a ride in one and oh my word, they are mental. Made mine seem rather slow and inept!
