Feeling cocky, is there a how to for K03 DV replacement?

Lol, after doing my camfollower, I'm feeling a bit tricky now... is there a how to for the K03 DV?  I think I read you go in through the drivers side wheel arch...

I did mine a few weeks ago (and again today!) going in through the wheel arch. I wrote the following post quoting an original guide by Lee (nc35), and all the subsequent replies will give you all the info you need. :happy2:

Did you pop in a G today Rich? Notice any difference from your new D?

Hmm, I'm not so sure this is my problem now, I have Rev.D atm:

RPM   Req.    Act.
2840   2300   2400
3200   2300   2350
3520   2260   2270
3800   2210   2180
4120   2180   2120
4400   2160   2110
4720   2160   2160
5000   2120   2090
5280   2010   2030
5520   1860   1950
5800   1770   1830
5960   1690   1740
6160   1670   1680

It's not a million miles off.

Seems spot on! My D which has been in the car for 50k now after the remap is leaking boost definitely. Ill pull out the figures and post them.

Must have a leaking pipe somewhere.
