Look at the turbo and on the tag it will have a number that say somewhere k04 or k03 somthing, buy a boost guage and install it is the best way.... after that to get more power, exhaust, test pipe, intake( not gunna give you much)...... or you could just upgrade to a BT like the gt28rs

It should say something like "German KKK K03" or "Germany kkk k04" ... Look up "Pray for arif" in the search and look at the pics in it.. You will get a good idea of where the turbo is, and what a beastly turbo looks like...
