The first one is a K04 so you can write that off.

But if the second one is actually a K03s then I would be put off by the price... Seems VERY cheap!!

I know it will fit but only at a much much greater cost!

the exhaust turbine broke and we found the rest off it almost in the back box of exhaust and the front turbin part was totally broken to and oil everywhere.
that was copy turbo like the ones shown here not normal ko3s turbo

How often do genuine ko3s snap they turbines? Thing with ebay is the warranty is not all that as some sellers make any excuses to get out of repairing it.

K03s turbo

As M87NER has stated - my turbo was only cheapish but has lasted a year so far and got me good power gains over my K03

Got my old K03 in the shed that I will soon be getting hybrid tho ...
