reliable? K04, period. If someone tries to say a BT kit is reliable, that's just because they got lucky as hell and never had a problem. When you push 2X's the power on a over a stock 170hp 1.8T, problems will happen......even if its as minor as a IC hose blowing off. Gotta love working on the car yourself if you own a BT kit, labor rates are just too outrageous anymore. (BT=big turbo)

He owns a B6. There is no programming available for the T3/T4 turbos.
