Car should be booked in for diff, clutch and flywheel on the 26th aslong as Jabba can get hold of the diff from Peloquin :D spoke to Brian and Carole today so fingers crossed! Total of 1211 including VAT thats for supplying and fitting the diff aswell as fitting my clutch and flywheel (which i will be supplying)

Got good prices back for the hybrids too. CRT are 545+VAT+ 15 quid carriage (this is for them to have it picked up and sent back) This includes the larger K04 turbine wheel, uprated thrust bearing, uprated actuator and the Larger RS6 style K04 compressor.

Turbo Dynamics offer 449 + VAT for Stage 1 and 499 + VAT for stage 2 and free carriage at the mo. They havnt got back to me about the differences between the stages though as of yet or what the prices include.

Hope this post helps other members out with prices etc

What do you mean mate? ko3s is on these as standard and about at its limits now as it pulled 245hp on the dyno, ko3s hybrid should see me 270-280hp with more torque.

Ko3 has 12 vanes and ko3s has 8, thats about the only differences i think. Then the hybrid ko3s is basically a ko4 more or less!

Prices aint as bad as i thought they were going to be, i wonder what the stage 1 and stage 2 is all about though let us know when you hear mate. Who do you think you will go with? Ive been set on CR ever since i heard about the hybrid

Ill be going with CRT i reckon mate, im same as you really! The bloke ive been emailing has been awesome at answering questions, ive had 3 replies off him today, you dont get that sort of service email-wise with many companies. Said he can build it to any custom spec but that one above is what ill be getting, just standard sort of hybrid. Going to be 650 odd all in it seems, so itl end up been about 400-450 as i should be able to sell mine for a good 200-250 i hope!

Ill post back about the TD stage 1&2 when they mail back. Told the bloke from CRT it wont be for a couple of months but im half tempted to get it done now and just stash it away till next year haha

If your taking this turbo off in the future then any chance you wanna send it my way for the right price? ;)

mk4's have the ko3s at standard. Think you can hybrid the ko3 and the ko3s to the same standards though as turbine wheel gets replaced anyway.

It'l be for sale when it comes off but not till next year id estimate and it wont be the cheapest ko3s about either :p

Got a reply from Turbo Dynamics. Reply just said the difference between stage 1 and stage 2 hybrids is the compressor wheel, which will ultimately give me more power. Don't seem to want to pass on much information in their turbos it seems

I didn't mean more power than CRT, meant their stage 1 has more power than their stage 2. Don't get why anyone wouldn't pay the extra 60 quid for the stage 2 turbo Though :/

I'll still be going with CRT too :)
