Nice you`ll love it :thumbup:

Change the exhasut many to how high flow item for best results, dont forget you`ll need a uprated fuel pump i run the lcr pump for my hybrid.

Lcr pump was £189+vat from the dealers IIRC.

I can only vouch for what i have got which is Bills map, This is a msg from Bill when he was ampping mine.

221g/s out of yours, 1.4bar at 6krpm good enough for ya?
spikes to 1.7bar, then drops from there.
goes pretty well.

same high airflow I see from k04 stage 2 LCR's - very respectable, and none of the GT2x crappy lag.


Speaks for its self, shes goes very well!

It certinatly does pin you back.

Managed to keep in front of a tuned STI ver9 on my runway, tuned to what i dont know but it had huge brakes and a massive FMIC lol.

hybrid can be worked using a ko3 (on the mk3 ibiza cupra) or a ko3s that you find on the leon cupra and audi tt (180bhp versions). It uses ko4 internals and some bits from the rs6 turbo.

Plenty of info on this if you search. Look in badger5's section, there is a sticky on it

VR6 - G60 setup:)


mates, are you talking about the k04-001 ? What kind of hybrid ?

No not a ko4-001

Converted from your old k03 or k03s depending on condition.

This is what happens to the inside and out of the turbo when sent to CRT for hybird treatment.

''Mark says'' I would plan to use the shaft, CHRA, and comp wheel from the Audi RS6 turbo, this gives us the largest combination of wheels in the K04 range, we then machine out your Turbine housing to make the shaft fit, we take the comp cover from a larger turbo eg Audi TT then weld the elbow from yours on to it so the actuator fits and to keep the turbo pipework fitting as original.


280-290bhp with the same torque is achievable once correct mods are in place and mapped.

Hoping to get mine RR`d in a couple of weeks.
