Never rebuild a k03 unless its going to be built to k04 spec like the gpopshop does.. If you want to keep it k03 just find a used one for $100-$200.

Thats cool. I appreciate it. I prob have them rebuild my ko3 to ko4 specs. Sounds like the best deal. I dont like the fact of buying a used stock turbo, never know how people treated them.
