nope , chinese made....

would this actually be a simple bolt on or would this be not worth it??? still using factory manifold and mounting holes and everything. i kno it will need another ecu flash but other than that, is this a thumbs up or down??

[blackbox619]

i say thumbs up but i would email the seller for the make and the model before i buy it.

Do not buy this! It is not real. If you start a thread in a few months saying your turbo failed I'm going to roundhouse you.

ok.. so so far, its two to one.... i take it the k04 isnt the same no matter what... why is this so cheap?

[phantom b6]

this will not bolt up.... look at a picture of a real k04 vs. this... the exhaust housing is rotated differently on the fake one and it won't bolt up properly

Also, the cat or test pipe wouldn't bolt up

think maybeit could be for a fwd???

[onceover]

no, fwd and quattro are identical.

DO NOT cheap out on parts, especially a turbo.

buy nice or buy twice

Won't work, period!

ok... guess that answers that.. thanx guys...
