Steve's right just go on APR's site and have a look at their stage 3 kit for mk6 Gti. Uses a Garrett turbo which we'll assume is the GT28RS.

I think a hybrid would be pushing the stock internals a bit too far  :laugh:

There's a boy up here running a mk6 gti with ko4 I believe some issues of late but think they might be resolved, it was supposed to be at a r/r i was at a few weeks ago.

So REVO is a no go then?  JKM are pretty certain its happening, as they arent even bothering with the stage 2 map, they are going straight to k04 spec as the next mod,

maybe its a code they will write in time but just not right now i guess

I see the peeps at "Lager" Autosport has fitted a AWE K04 kit to a Mk6 GTI also, using GIAC software (converted from US Spec for European use too)

Back to the current mods, kept the ride height a little higher for the winter, but will go lower come the spring: -







And the shiney bits underneath





Really impressed with the difference over just the springs I had before  :happy2:

AFAIK the only reason he never made the rr day was his clutch is slipping too much.

Car should go really well once the turbo is in  :driver:
