changed my turbo yesterday, from the ko3 to the ko3s (quite an easy job when you have all the right washers and gaskets from VW), keeping the standard intercooler but changing the pipework to the blue silicone stuff, what kind of HP will it be once remapped? its a 1999 AGU 150bhp thanks in advance im hoping 200bhp will be achievable

220ish with standard actuator.

I have the same set up but my pipework has red silicone stuff.....does it make mine faster...

lol i dont no wether keep it standard at 150bhp because i want keep it a long time and not destroy it, its had too much spent on the car to blow it up, somebody has told me change the N75 valve and this will help me get more boost ? is this right ? thanks for the comments

any decent tuner will check your car over before they map it an if they dont think it will be suitable they will tell you

A different N75 valve will not give you more boost. A remap is the only safe way

ive decided to keep the standard AGU map (150bhp) on the ko3s it runs smooth feels just like before, but am i right in thinking with this ko3s running at 150bhp it will last longer because its running lower power than it should be  ? 

[Wazzzer]

K03s ran 150bhp and 180bhp

[1.8t.jim]

thats just made me feel better about keeping it 150bhp cheers mate

What was the reason you changed the turbos in the first place??
