LOBA LO4XX Hybrid K04 Turbo
« on: June 28, 2012, 08:24:30 pm »
Right then, who is interested?

Turbo should be good for 450bhp and similar torque.  Original oil and water lines fit straight on along with the K03/K04 downpipe.  Intake just needs an extra pipe.  Almost a bolt on setup.

Or go for a real mans turbo setup:  :evilgrin:

Looks great Alex  :happy2:

I assume all Stage 2+ hardware is required? Anything else? Will the standard rods and pistons take it?

I reckon standard ed30/s3/TTS rods etc will take that but only just. Look incredible and have read a lot of excited people's remarks on this subject. Would love to get one but definitely a engine rebuild for a K03  :sad1:

vRS will be getting one in the next few weeks for development then the turbo will come out once we are happy.

Revo will hopefully be doing the mapping.

Its not particularly cheap, but compared to a 3071/3076 setup it is.

 :love:


Revo doing the mapping  :scared:

What softwares on Steves?

Revo, but stage 3 which is meant for for the 3071 turbos, rs4 injectors etc.

With that setup he has to use a manual boost controller.

ARP headstuds and a new headgasket would be minimum requirement for me for reliability on the k04 engine.

Been looking into this alot recently and i reckon your looking at £4k easily for the turbo, RS4 injectors, modified intake, in tank fuel pump, ARP head studs plus headgasket, new map not sure how much Revo will want over 2+ and then theres labour on top.

I guess you gotta pay to play.
