2010 GTI Turbo

[gt_eye]

Hi guys, was just wondering...does anyone have a link or any info on the actual turbo used in the 2010 GTI?
Pics of the stock turbo and what type, make and model of turbo it is...
Just curious as I can't see it in the engine bay of mine, I assume its on the firewall side of the engine
Any info would be great

It's a "K03" type turbo. Not sure of the make and model as it's probably not out there on the "general market" as it's integrated into the exhaust manifold.
Good photos are also difficult to find, but here is a for sale thread from another forum which has photos of the K03, and also a GT2871R turbo, which I believe is the basis for some aftermarket "Stage III" kits.

It's a KKK K03S I believe...

As far as I know, the K03 is from Borg Warner. (Perhaps BW bought out KKK's turbo designs when Siemens bought KKK?) See this link which has some very basic specs alongside the K04.

There's this thread on golfmkv.com that discusses it. Someone from APR states the latest TSI ( EA888 ) runs a K03 from IHI... not sure how that'd work...
