    I am sending my K04's to Blouch down in the states. But why would you save a K03 why not go to something bigger?

      I would personally go bigger but this is my moms car that i'm repairing. And because my dad blew his tranny (2001 s4) and her turbo is now going (blowing smoke all over the place) money is tight so we are trying to find a "cheap" option

      plus she doesnt even want to chip the car so going to k04 is not worth it you know?

        I htink buying a used turbo from Junkyard would be a better bet... try Tunedub auto parts.

            No experience there

            There used to be a place in town called Alamo that rebuilt turbos, not sure if they are still around?

                  how much did you pay to get it over to them and back (roughly) or is that an inclusive price?
