Yeah I replaced the turbo in mine (long story short, crap tune) with the stock k04. Fitment would not be fun with a bigger turbo lol I'm not doing it again this time.

Just read through the whole thread, jealous. Looks like you're doing everything right the first time, how you should. Excited to see what kind of power it makes
