carlos3 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Hi Is it possible to fit the larger KO4 turbo in 225 TT's/S3's to a 99 A3 1.8T sport? If it is does it require further mods like uprated clutch to handle extra power? I would want to remap it to ~260BHP Cheers, Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Your clutch will be fine, but you'll need a different downpipe from the turbo to the cats, because the K04 exits in a different place to the stock K03. If you want reliable power, rather than strangling the engine, then fit some TT 225 or S3 225 injectors as well and you should be able to map it to 270-290 bhp depending on who you use. Oh and be prepared for some bitching torque steer - nothing you can do about that because of the different length driveshafts. You'll have some proper fun though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcs_80 Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 As Mook mentions, you will need to change alot more than just the turbo to achieve 260bhp+ We can offer full turbo conversions to get you to this power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We offer a 350bhp kit. This is approx £4900 including fitting and custom mapping. Do you have the 150bhp or 180bhp A3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
