Wetterauer K04 installed! Cool man!!
Okay, I finally got that sucker (or should I say, blower) bolted on last night. I had a buddy do the installation for me, while I took care of the simple stuff (oil change/ECU/Coolant...etc.). Installation time...4.5 hours, including an hour my brother spent looking for replacement bolts for the turbo at auto part stores- don't ask.
Well, looks to me that since donp's (early adapter) Wetterauer K04 installation, they've gotten their ECU programming right! Everything works great... power deliver is smooth, stronger pull through out the entire range (up to 10 psi). I haven't pushed the new turbo yet (20 miles on it currently).
My friend who has the Wett 1bar loved the upgrade. He tells me it's a bad idea for me to do this upgrade, because now he wants it. I love the new *sweee* sound that is coming from the turbo - very nice. I've been driving w/o the radio on to see if I can catch any ping or detonation. Nothing thus far.
I want to post this because I've read so many other posts about how Wetterauer shouldn't be selling their stuff here, or how they don't have the programming right. Now, as a Wetterauer K04 owner now, I can say...their programming is good and up to par!
I will give another report as I put on more miles.

Did you pay $2500 and if so why??
You were willing to take the risk and pay top dollar for a product that has gotten
nothing but bad reviews. What were you thinking?
Also, could you post your email address?? I'd like to email you to check this out a little further if you don't mind.
