    APR is not a good option as their tunes are designed for the K04 or Garrett.

    I'd be looking to CC.

    Thumbs up to whoever does it! Wouldn't you want to be changing stock internals with that much power though?

    I think you would have to limit the boost to control the torque, a few more nm's is fine, but some tuners have recommended i not go to the K04 for the same reason. The gearbox is another limitation, but I think it depends what you expect from it and how you are going to drive.

    Just yesterday I was wondering where you got to. I was driving back through murwillmbah to natural arch in the rain and remembered following you through that stretch in near identical conditions a few years back on a cruise. (although this time in the girlfriends bright orange and automatic fiesta, lol)

    its not in (was just discussing this in his thread).

    if you like the look of the hybrids, have a look at Badger5's turbo Lupo (around 300hp from a 1.8T and hybrid turbo)

    Ive run one for a little while in my over weight Golf on a Giac tune although boost hit 30psi so had to put a MBC in to lower it . . . I just sent a F4L to ACT so a Passat or A4 round that area should be having a bit more fun soon.
