I've pretty much committed in my brain to just go with K04's but I'm worried about getting all this money out and in 6 months start wondering why I didn't go all the way with this. Having been in a GT car, I can only describe it as erotically violent but this decision for me goes beyond dyno numbers and goes beyond having GT28's just to have GT28's. K04's are more than enough but when that carrot is hanging out there, it makes it tough to look the other way.

I'm sure it's around but didn't feel like searching (doing all morining already).
I'd probably go w/ K04 for daily driving and reliability(?) purpose.

when going from stock, the difference is not a huge number

You sure about that? I just went K04 Stg. 3 for less than $7K installed. GT kits are way more $$$$

Was it a kit or just the turbos/inlets? If kit, which one and where?

ClemsonKev

amen, I want to take my stock B5 to stg3 for $7k too, please advise

NJRickD

it is when you're adding all the pieces, manifolds, DP's, exhaust, fmic, etc etc

Warranty pay $1750 for both stock turbo replace, I gave my mechanic $400 on top of that for K04/RS6, $550 RS4 inlet pipe, custom tune at EPL $1899 fueling kit $499 custom tune/dyno pull.

so 400+ 550+ 1899+499=3348. if you add DP and exhaust, I already have a them before stage 3, only thing extra to go with my stage 3 is RS4 clutch. but that still leave me under 4k total

it is possible if your 2+ with the clutch and mounts already done but not from stock
