Hey guys just wondering if anyone has performed any other form of turbo upgrades apart from the usual K04 kit? i am aware of the GT series of turbo's but i cant justify 3k or so for a turbo.
Has anyone ever played around with Jap factory turbo's and how they fair against the standard Mk5 item. I know the Mitsubishi Evo turbo's can run 18psi from factory and the Evolution is a quick car out of the factory? how would a MK5 fair with such a turbo opposed to the K04, also, what about other brands? like Subaru or for example a Toyota Supra turbo?
i understand that a custom manifold will have to be made, but would any of the above turbo's yeild better results than the K04? i understand that they are vaccume wastegated, so if i tap into the pressure side of the intake it should be ok to control boost pressure shouldnt it?
