Soo last night im coming home from the Clippers vs. Warriors season opener and I see a lowered mk4 Behind Me on my ass so I step on it in 6 gear at about 75mph and he gets in the next lane and pulls about 3 1/2 cars on me I didn’t down shift cuz I don’t need to on a mk4 gti most of the time so he slowed down so we could go again that’s when I see his license plate (MK4 KO4) and he has APR stickers to so he has the APR 1.8t KO4 kit so we line up and do a 3 honk pull at 70mph I pull him by 2-3 cars then we slow down and he started yelling at me lets do a 45mph pull so we do and again I pull about 3-4 cars all the way up to about 130mph then we let off we both thru the peace sign and went are separate ways. I was surprised I pulled him that hard hear is some numbers from APR site the apr ko4 kit for the mk4 gti is good for 242hp/268lb-ft on 91 octane gas, and 245hp/275lb-ft on 93 octane gas vs my UNITRONIC STAGE 2 280HP / 325LB-TQ MK6 GTI 6-speed

Stage 2, just need to pick up S3 IC off of ecstuning, and prolly an RAI motorsport DP since its cheap.

Theres a Uni dealer close to where I live who offered to build me a custom turbo kit as long as he can use my car as a guinea pig, more to come on that.

:confused:

so....you beat a car with less power then you? Um, congrats? I smoked a Prius off the line yesterday, let's party. :D

Seriously, I'd like to go Stage 2 myself, but want to do it with all the bolt ons (DP, CBE, FMIC) and it's just too much cash......at least now.

1.8t are super slow, even with k04. Good run though.

I know it's the vs section, I was mostly busting your chops. I guess it's not like you were posting about racing a Nissan Cube.

You would think a K04 1.8T would be make more power. The advances in engine technology the last 10 years is pretty amazing. We have more power and better gas mileage in almost everything that is offered today. My wife's 2011 300c with the 5.7l will get 29 mpg on the highway while being able to accelerate to 60 in the low 5s. They say the 60's was the golden age of horsepower but we are living in a golden age of power, gas mileage and emission less then 1% of what the cars of that era put out.

^the mk4 ko4 was a baby turbo....might even be smaller than our k03...can't confirms that though...it was the stock turbo off the 225 audi TT's...nothing special, but a nice upgrade for the 1.8t for cheap

The fail and incorrect statements in this thread is hilarious.

1. No MK4 GTI ever weighed 2800lbs unless it was weight reduced.
2. K04's are not smaller then K03's AND there are variants and modified K04's available now meaning there is a good chance it wasn't a turbo off a TT.

Good post, good kill....130mph may be a bit excessive but anyways back on topic.

Actually there are some k04's that are smaller than k03's. Not all K04 are the same. The k04 upgrade for audi b5 s4 is smaller than a stock k03 that comes in the mk5 FSI GTI's. Just cause it's a k04 don't mean they're literally larger.

To others
The mk6 turbo is IHI btw, not k03.
