Direct bolt-on turbo (ko4 replacement)
Yup, had to ask him to weld it on there. Looks like after getting the request every single time, he just made it part of the turbo LOL
Cant wait to have mine serviced by him so it has all the shiny newness of what you guys have

That's smart. The K04+'s downfall was the intake wheel being basically too big for the exhaust wheel to run it, so you had to be careful in the tune with how quickly you raised boost. It's good to hear that they gave some attention to the exhaust side too on this one.
Also, I hope Matt Omiotek sees this thread bc he can clarify on the details of their (PWerks) new turbo.

I'll probably end up with this turbo and sell my K04+, especially if it's a true direct bolt on! Literally take off and put on, without dealing with bending or adding cooling lines etc.
There's a 90% chance, I'll make effort to get it.
***Edit***
I wonder if they can just retrofit my K04+, in which case I won't need to sell! Wonder if it'll end up cheaper too. I should ask.

After a few weeks I finally got it fix and working like it should. Precision was pretty nice about it. Just had to be patient I guess. I only make 347whp on 91 octane though so it does a decent job.

That sounds like a pretty good number to me, on 91. Too bad you don't have E close to you. You could probably get 400hp.
