Hey i just bought a mk3, what first mods do you recommend?

[@Eurolanta6]

I had a 97 MK3 GTI VR6 twin turbo. That was the funnest/ most reliable non turbo to turbo build I ever driven that car was neck to neck in reliability with my wife’s 07 Honda Accord 2.4l in stock form. We both drove our cars for 5 years, and both only had to do regular oil changes, tuneup, and tire changes. And mind you that was my first car I actually set out to build. it cost me my high school savings working at ihop. Ended up with like 5k into the turbo build. And another 2k in suspension. And what made it all super nice was the tune. The tune and who you pick to tune your car will always be the factor that determines if your car will be reliable and fun. Or a money pit then a blown engine… DO iT Right. Nd always use oem Bosch parts where you can. NGK plugs, amsoil oil, and Mann or wix filters..

[@castin5244]

Needs a remap. VWs don't take well to power modifications without remapping. Everything is controlled by the ECU. Wastegate, diverter valve, etc.

[@r1l3y91ef]

Yup. Well aware.

[@brandonowings4268]

So is literally every car since OBD2 became common use. And it's known in the audi community that a K04 on stock ecu is a noticeable upgrade. Tuning and slightly less tiny injectors will obviously yield more power but only because of factory boost pressure being a measly 12psi

[@daltonhayes3694]

of course there’s no difference because you’re still running a ko3 map

[@r1l3y91ef]

Hahhaha. Dude. 24psi 20 hold is going to be the same no matter what. That's where the wastegate is set to open. It does spool a tad later and high end feels better and doesn't fall off as much as k03. I can see what you mean if it was on the factory tune. Anyway. Over 3k mileage on this turbo and still going strong. Taking Subaru's to gapplebees on the weekly. Cheers

@Kuma Ma-kun its simple and direct. Just undo the old stuff and swap in the new stuff and make sure that you use new crush washers on the coolant and oil feed lines on the turbo.

[@nissantech8857]

Different waste gate provides more resistance before opening which allows higher boost levels even on stock tune. N75 valve upgrade would come in handy

I’m thinking of doing the same. Have you done it yet? I bought a “stock” b5.One of the previous owners put a 2.3 inch catless turbo back from SS auto chrome on there with the stock tune so it runs kinda rough. It also has an upgraded forge DV. My front mount will be here tomorrow so I might as well do a k04 since I wanna replace the turbo anyway and get the stage 2 plus.

[@noahmitchell5814]

Ofc you’ve got play in your turbo, sounds like you’ve stuck the diverter valve closed, that’s a great way to screw up the turbo tbh

[@r1l3y91ef]

Watch the follow up videos. New diverter fixed it. Turbo is still alive and well pulling hard.

[@PanosGr44]

It must be a k04-01 which is a k03 + a little bit more torque. That's why it works fine with current ecu map. If it was a k04-023 or k04-064 it would be a different story.

[@r1l3y91ef]

You are correct! I didn’t even know there was many versions of the k04. I learned a lot after this video.

[@shona5512]

Most Volkswagen guys will know that a K04 is not just a direct bolt on. Especially if your car was a 150bhp model, in which case the standard form is a K03 setup. For a K04 Upgrade, you need a K04 manifold, you'll need K04 oil lines and a suitable K04 downpipe because of the exhaust housing being in a different place. Then in order to make the power you'll either need a 225 fuel rail with TT or S3 injectors, and a BAM inlet manifold, or just buy bigger aftermarket injectors. You'll also need a lot of little awkward bits. It's not just a straight swap, unfortunately.

[@rabbitgti652]

Shona a k04-001 is a direct bolt on. Your thinking of the Audi TT 225 turbo

[@shona5512]

@@rabbitgti652 Yes, that's what I'm thinking of because that's generally what a real K04 is. A K04-001 is essentially a K03s. An actual K04 (such as the one from a TT, S3 or LCR) will see a big power increase due to the fact that it's an improved design with different components, rather than being what is basically a factory K03 hybrid turbo

Yes yes. There are many different k04 turbos as well. Like all of the mazdaspeed cars use a altered version of the k04 as well as the mk5 and mk6 GTI's. But this was simply supposed to show that you can swap over to this if you have a blown turbo and the boost characteristics did change quite a but. The k03 didn't so very well on the top end power.

hey guys great job! Nice shoots! Question, do you remap your software by you own? i have a TTMK1 APP engine and i would like to upgrate him by my own. Do you have a tip how to modificy my ECU? Thanks guys.

[@TreatsOnTheStreets]

Nope. We both pay reputable tuners to do it for us. Thanks for watching!

[@Schrauba]

@@TreatsOnTheStreets ok, i understand :D please tell me what about the Turbocharger. is it a simple K04 upgrade? And as i have seen you have a 3inch downpipe right :p

[@jaymelomento4138]

[@ranselmendonca2681]

Thinking of getting this turbo for my 2.0 mk4

[@slonky821]

The 2.0 is shit, just sell it and get a 1.8t

[@timmyconte6197]

Did the flautering sounds ever get fixed yet. Had the same thing and friend ran line to intake manifold and holds boost better.

[@TreatsOnTheStreets]

Yeah just used a diff diverter valve and routed vacuum to brake booster.

[@r1l3y91ef]

I had to get a better diverter valve. I got the adjustable spring rkx valve. My vacuum line was fine.

[@boostaddict_]

lol that old turbo isn't really that bad. also it isn't "leaking out the seals" because there are no seals. The oil is held in with air pressure. Oil coming out is normal.

[@r1l3y91ef]

The brass bushings sure are seals hahaha. That turbo had way more play than most of the turbos I’ve ever had haha.

[@Afflictious]

He needs a better Diverter Valve its not blowing off causing air back into turbo causing the stuutuutu but slowing down the spool.

[@r1l3y91ef]

Look at the suspension video. I already fixed it.

[@mk3gti..270]

I actually got a gt3582r big turbo from max an it's great

[@andyhopkinson2708]

Where are these turbo's made?

[@r1l3y91ef]

China

[@Silver_1_1_1]

Love the Golf my guy !

[@fortnitestreamclips2654]

What diverter valve or intake do you have because I have a 1.8t ko4 stage 3 catless downpipe and ecs tuning intake with a diverter valve and it doesn’t give the spooly noises like that

[@theGinthebuilding]

Guy has got the crimson chin lol. At least he acknowledged that there is no difference between the K03 and K04. ESPECIALLY because it's still on a k03 file and stock 318cc injectors. He would see a difference with injectors and a tune. And he says, " the guy that did the tune says it will work fine for K03 or K04 turbo..." That's what someone says that just wants to make the sale on a tune 😂 I admit they are similar but definitely not the same

[@TreatsOnTheStreets]

The dude already made the sale on the tune. Tune had already been on the car for tens thousands of miles. As far as trying to sell a tune, it would have made more sense for the tuner to tell him he did need a different tune and sell him another one. Since the tuner didn't do that, I'd say his motives are probably pretty honest. A new tune would probably benefit a bit, but without other parts just probably wouldn't be worth it since the turbos are so close to the same.

[@theGinthebuilding]

@@TreatsOnTheStreets I understand the tuner might say yes the tune works for either turbo, and you are right the tuner would be right to upsell the K04 file, I am a Eurocustoms Tuning Dealer and anytime anyone upgrades turbo we always tell them to get a new file (at a discount if they already have our tune). I'm just happy he wasn't like everyone else that gets a K04 saying " OMG I feel a huge difference" good video though man, more VW content 👍

[@r1l3y91ef]

@@theGinthebuilding thanks for the great input! I chose this turbo specifically because I wanted to see how it would feel on the same tune. As it's my daily and I'm probably dangerously close to 300ftlbs I fear for the bottom end with the high mileage. The k04-001 definitely comes on later and doesn't seem as stressful to the bottom end. Also pulls way better all of the way up to 7k rpm. I realize that in order to "achieve best power" I should do a dyno tune. But this is my shitbox daily and I just like to party! Cheers! And again thanks for the input!

[@psilisimon6344]

How long do these run for?

[@RobertBrunoResearchDarknet]

we should meet and make a racket lol, mine sounds the exact same, spent about the same, im with my stock k03s and its great like you said

[@pepijnowns]

How is the turbo now? Still running fine? No leaks or whatever?

[@r1l3y91ef]

Still good. I sold the car about 8 months ago. But I stay in contact with the current owner. He says she’s still going strong.

[@alexjanito3404]

That turbos gonna blow without the dv hooked up

[@r1l3y91ef]

Hahahahahhaha. Closed throttle compressor surge is literally harmless. Open throttle compressor surge is terrible.

[@alexjanito3404]

@@r1l3y91ef its bad either way. The exhaust turbine wants to spin one way while the extra pressure has nowhere to go in the charge pipe so it goes back out the inlet of the turbo, (the flutter sounds) thus slowing down the compressor turbine, add in the momentum of the exhaust side and it puts stress on the shaft of the turbo. Enough stress can snap it in half

You should educate yourself. Closed throttle compressor surge is virtually harmless. Open throttle compressor surge is very bad on the other hand.

I have a 1.8t golf gti it has the k04 with apr stage 2 tune with 550cc injectors. It's running rich and I think I need to do smaller injectors calling apr tomorrow for some tips but trying to get any advice I can lol it pulls strong but here and there it sputters like its either getting to much airflow or fuel or not enough of one or the other

[@FenixPajarito]

Your golf had ko3 or KO3s? I have a 2004 Mk4 gti 1.8t with KO3s stock, is it worth to upgrade with a KO4?

It was a gls. So it just had a k03.

@Quévin Santos about 200whp and 230tq. But we will never know actual numbers because I never put it on the dyno. The tune was capable of 250hp 270tq
