This K04-023 performance turbo is a powerful upgrade for VAG 1.8T engines and can be fitted straight away as a replacement for the original turbo. Thanks to its larger compressor and improved turbine, this turbo offers higher airflow and better performance without the need for any modifications to the mounting points.
With the right upgrades, such as a larger Intercooler, a 3" Downpipe and modified software, power output of up to approximately 330PK can be achieved. The turbo is oil- and water-cooled and fully balanced for reliability and long-term performance.
