Noob Question!

[Seerlah]

Will a k03 off an S4 work on our cars? And if so, do you know what years (if any) the application for the turbos on the B5 S4 were the k03s? Thanks!

no. not a direct bolt on.

NO it wont work, dont think about trying it

Ok, I placed a thread for WTB a k03s and an individual from NJ replied. I am in NY and could go pick up myself, but am not to knowledgable about cars and was going to have my freind's brother install it. He said it was never used and how could I tell if it is applicable to my vehicle? I will pm him right now to request, but since this thread is fresh I might as well ask here also for peace of mind. Thanks!

Has your turbo gone out? I thought that the 01's came with a KO3s. I could be wrong tho.

No, you are correct. But I am getting some cash in a couple weeks and am getting a few things on my car to full specs before it turns into an expensive problem. Then I am going to throw in a chip, so I figure find a used low milaeage k03s while at it as I do not know the current condition of my turbo and will more than likely overabuse it the way I drive. Then sell my current one for like 50-125 bucks in the FS section. Basically I want my car in the best (not best, but better than ok) condition I can have her so I should not have to worry for the next couple of years. Hopefully.
