LOL.... why did you let these poor nieve souls go through this and install those things. You should have talked them into the real deal K04s.....

pretty nuts eh? btw did messing w/ the mbc fix the boost issues?

I'm 8000Km's on them now, no leaks, pull strong and i'm pleased with them so far. I have the AWE stage 3 set up installed since day 1. So far, i had to fix numerous
boost leaks, had to change primary O2's (misfires + limp mod) but know it goes like it should. About that grinding thing, i just cant figure out how people would be able to fit that bolt in w\o doing it, let just see the pic and judge for yourselves...

Yep, brought it up to 22psi. Had the car up on the lift as well, the bottom part of the drivers side turbo is covered in syrupy dried up coolant. I'll take some pictures for the thread compilation if you don't mind Max.

Considering they are selling out of these all the time, I can't help but think there are a ton of people out there that just don't bother posting on forums. Yes, the concerns are valid... there are definitely a lot of issues with these things. Mostly quality control, from what I have seen. But I don't think we are even close to having the full picture on what the actual failure rate is.

Yeah, as I've said before there are most likely a ton of people who wouldn't waste their breath telling anyone anything on tis forum for fear of being flamed like most of you do to people.
