Default K04???

Would I be able to bolt on a new K04 to my 2001 A4 without changing anything for the time being, such as injectors, software, wiring hoses? If so how much power would that add?

Yes, you can but you won't see the real benefits of the k04 without software upgrades. It would probably be a good idea to upgrade the DV when you install the k04.

u might want to change the injectors if the software complements it but a FMIC would help u wit the new boost

Depending on the programing you will need different things. the j31 file is more aggressive and needs a FMIC and TT injectors atleast.

But yes, putting on a K04 with no chips or anything will make stock boost, and stock HP.

You might as well buy the chip/turbo together.

You can see considerable HP improvements with Exhaust/K04/DV/injectors/FMIC/Intake Mod/5 bar FPR. Cost? hmmmm

k04 retail you can get them for about 800-900$, though other sources can get you one alot cheaper.
injectors are 400 for TT injectors or about 250 for any 364/440CC injectors.
Intake mod is free except for the K/N drop in filter which is about 40-50$ . There is a writeup on audiworld about the mod.
5 bar FPR not sure on this one.. maybe 50-100$????
DV/BPV Diverter Valve,Bypass Valve =40$ for OEM 710N but for higher boost get the 130$ forge/baileys
FMIC about 1K.
Exhaust atleast 700$
So you looking to spend about 3K

But it would be sweet!

You will have more power with a ko4 then ko3, it will be minimal, but there will be a power gain. If the ecus request the same amount of boost, then say 10psi on ko4, is going to put out more gains then 10psi on a ko3.

I'm glad you went to town re j31...but he is an 01...no j31 software available. Plus, he already has the larger injectors.
