K03/s hybrid has the k04 internals, if you get all the bits to fit a K04 and get a new one you will see much better results. Like Toby did.

There are a few places that sell genuine ones but they are not cheap at all, can get hybrids for cheaper.

So why do you want another one? What are you running from it?

Get a new hotside and do all the supporting mods and remapped

if it was working before you removed it then its fine, just get a new housing as jon said and rebuild it with new bearings and seals.
