Default Rebuilding K03 To Make It Better?

Just as the title says. I was just curious if you can rebuild a K03 with a better turbine and bearing and whatever else you can and expect more power out of it? Would it even be worth it? Don't flame, this is just an honest question out of curiosity.

Thanks,
Chris

you can swap K04 compressor housing and compressor wheel to make it a hybrid. but the cost do do so is nearly he same to just buy a K04. or look for K03s. I think K03s is similar, if not the same as doing the hybrid. you'd only expect to see a slight increase in power and power band will slightly shift upward.
