    eurocode was the cheapest i found

    however they also had the worst customer service ive ever experienced, if i had to do it all over again id buy from a local place rather than sending my ecu to get chipped and taking 2 weeks to get it back and never getting a phone call.

    a website on here search a bit, they sell K03's turned into K04's that are better, but think about going GTRS! It costs nearly the same!

    Re: Questions about KO4??

    ^^2nd on that. Also look into getting at least a DSMIC or a FMIC to handle cooling. You'll also need larger injectors. You can either go with Bosch 386cc (TT225) injectors and APR's ECU program, or go with some 380cc injectors and GIAC programming.

    While not absolutely necessary, now would also be a good time to replace the oil feed and return lines with new (eliminate possibility for any leftover sludge/deposits from getting into the new turbo).

    Was looking to go with eurocode........might not now! How is that turbo from gpopshop.com. I looked at it, and there warranty doesn't sound bad. But i thought the Ko4 would get a little more then 210hp. Or is that just with the KO4. I all ready have Revo1, injectors coming in, test pipe?? not sure who to go with. Was it worth putting that KO4 in?
    I also saw the KO4 from Blouch Turbo Inc. Any one know of these turbos?

    Stay away from Eurocode unless you want to wait weeks for what you ordered and be constantly lied to over the phone. With that being said, just buy it from Kinetics, you can't go wrong with them.
    but think about going GTRS! It costs nearly the same!
    I have a GTRS, you are crazy.

    How long ago did you install the set up? any suggestions to someone who has been looking at buying one from gpopshop.com? and has it been worth it?
    Just keeping up with the rest of them...

    Re: Questions about KO4??

    dude gpopshop turbo is awesome.. as for them sayin its only good for 210hp... that is just a figure they put up. i think that means untuned dunno but disregard that... this k04 is sick from them it looks brand spanking new wen i got it.. it been on for 2 months now and runs flawless... the only used part is the shell of the turbo..everything else is brand new... and they look new... very agrresively deigned compresser wheel on it and they did a great job port and polishing mine... also its warrenteed for a year... eurocode def. blows i waited 3 weeks to get my manifold wen i was waiting for my turbo to be installed i had to put off doing my turbo 2 weeks in a row... they kept tellin me it would be here in a few days and was already shipping out.... then wen i demanded a trcking number found out it wasn't even shipped 2 weeks after i ordered... rediculous i wish someone would have warned me be4 i bought from them but heres my warnin to you... don't buy from them!!! a4dit: u hit the nail on the head.. they lie to you over and over about y ur stuff isn't in yet then u will finally get it 2 weeks- a month later.. they suck! so if ur buying a new one go to kinetic... buying this one go to gpopshop..... my opinion i'd go with gpopshop.. u get a port and polished k04 with bigger compresser wheel for a lil less then a new stock ko4... def worth it to me gpop shop was great company to deal with and does an awesome job

    You need to look over your numbers again. Supporting mods aside, a K04 kit from Ecode will run you $1699 as where a GTRS kit will run you $2699 and that is not including the Neuspeed tip you will need for a GTRS and that is another $270. I almost forgot, a clutch is a much needed item for GTRS and not needed for a K04. Lets say $500for a stg 3 clutch not including labor. My totals are almost 2 grand different than each other.

    I'm sure you have some good info in your post but damn, your posts are so annoying to read with all the "wen, u ,ur, lil" and all the other cutesy 8th grade chick text-speak . Why don't you just type/spell normally? Just a thought. That is all.
