Thanks, ill do that when i get the chance, and right now i'm thinking that getting rid of my car and replacing it with a more powerful car may be the better option (possibly a leon cupra r), as i want a decent amount of power 240+ and modifying an almost stock car costs a lot more money than just buying a more powerful car

to be honest, i want a mk4 Toyota supra, but getting one of those in decent condition will cost a fortune.

A extra 60-80ft-lb low down grunt over stage 1 makes all the difference along with potential of 50bhp over a remapped k03.

I've just been offered a k03s/ k04 hybrid is there anything I should look out for on it? And it should just be a straight fit right?

A ko3 hybrid is a direct fit. A ko4 hybrid isnt unless its a 001. Make sure you get a pic and post it up or get clear on which it is
