does anyone have pics of our K04???
please post pics of the K04 FROM OUR CAR! not another car please!

Thanks!

 

I went out and took this pic last night.



Seriously, this is exactly what it looks like.

 

omg post of the year..i seriously spit bud light out of my mouth..FTW!!

 

that looks incredibly efficient

 

what about a ko3

 

If I remember right, we've got the K04-025. This is a K04-015. It's probably close enough for what you're needing though I'm guessing.



Looks remarkably the same as the picture taken in the posts above.

Edit: Found it... K04-025. Apparently the same trim as used in the RS4.

 

im just curious is the ko4 racist like the ko3, mine says kkk on the tag =\

 

I was seeing that when I was doing my searches. I think it's a company that works with turbos such as the K04.

 

bogwarner makes these turbos correct?

 

Correct.

k, so im a tad turbo retarded i suppose. whats the gold thing coming off the compressor side?

 

im going to guess (stab in the dark here) the acculator??(if thats how its pronounced)

 

You got it. That's the actuator. It controls the wastegate on the turbo to control boost pressure, keeping it regulated and from overboosting/overspinning.

 

i r retarded

 

Here's a pic I took at the Houston Autoshow:

The actuator is on the top left. When it gets to a set pressure, it moves that rod on the top and opens the valve (internal wastegate) inside the exhaust side on the right.

(Note: To my knowledge, these pics are not of a K04. Just posting them for explanation purposes.)



Edit:
I uploaded two others so you can see the rod and internal wastegate parts a bit better.

 

LMAO thats the funniest thing i heard all day. ya its racist, just like all those people who put cream in their coffee. lol

 

Just remember to say Triple K and not KKK

 

lmao

 

damn I keep forgeting how tiny that little K04 is!

 

yeah

 

LNF Cut-Away that was at Super Chevy in Memphis Last year

Not the turbo.. but.. since i'm posting..

 

Very cool. Thanks for the post-up of the pics!

 

Yah really cool.

Do you have more/full resolution shots? Any of the intake side showing the direct injection?

 

Unfortunatly they are all cell phone pictures...lol.. but here's all that i took, in full size:

 

This isn't ours, but it shows direct injection in general...
