Hey guys! So I just got more things fixed on my car and while I had it at the garage to get front wheel bearings and fuel filter done I found out that my turbo is going bad! Which explains why I burn so much oil! Anyway I am on the hunt for a new turbo! I am looking at doing the Ko4 upgrade. From what I have read it is a direct bolt on in place of the k03. It can run off the stock ECU. Now my question is I have read different sites that say Longitudenal motor? Is that the motor I have? Its a 1.8t with AEB code. The timing belt is at the front of the car so I am guessing that makes it longitudenal? Anybody got a ko4 turbo for sale?? If so let me know! I would like to get one in the next few weeks! Thanks

 

yes its longitudinal, transverse is generally fwd.

 

But it's worth noting that the FWD version of this car is also longitudinal.

 

Thanks for the responses. I believe the ko4 I need is the ko4-15?

 

That is correct, though sometimes you'll see it written as K04-0015.

 

weeeiiiirrrrdddd I did not know that.

What do you guys think of this ?

 

That looks decent for an Ebay turbo, but looks can be deceiving. It would be worth asking the seller for more information on the 1-year warranty (what it covers and replacement policies). Just remember that you to get what you pay for - a turbo is no exception, and being such a vital part of your car you need to be careful choosing one.

 

This guy is selling a K04.

I will definitely ask the seller these questions.
