Well, I blew up a set of K04's and no one seemed to have a set available so I'm going with the k03/k16 hybrids from Buehn. Jacob is quoting me 480 hp with fueling so they should have all the potential of the K04's and maybe a little more. And the best part is that my one tech at work pulled the turbos without pulling the motor so my labor is only going to be in the $600 range compared to the $1250-2500 I see alot of the shops quoting.

I'll post pics once we are done. We pulled the front bumper and the front radiator support. Then we unbolted the turbos and manofolds and pulled them out the front. The pass side intercooler is off and I took the A/C compressor loose. But the motor is in the car and it only took 2 1/2 hours to get both turbos out of the car.
Man do you know how crazy this sounds!!!!!!!!!! Replacing the turbos from the front!!!! 2.5 hours and the turbos are out!!!
PLEASE post some pictures as soon as you can. I just got K04's and was looking at having the motor pulled for $1800 to have them installed!!
2nd that! Hell yea, 2.5hs vs 14hs, that sounds awesome to me! Also that I can do it in my garage!
