Default 00 ATW is running a K03 or a K03s?

car is rocking about 138K and the turbo is leaking a good deal of oil into the intake. so what's the standard replacement? if it's a K03 can a K03s go in w/o any other changes?

Default K03 - K03S not really any point unless you find one cheap, same thing with K04

K04 can make more power than chipped K03 but after software, injectors, FMIC, exhaust you're better off pointing funds in the direction of a bigger turbo.

Default i repeat again, i dont think ANY B5 was EVER shipped with a K03s.

i have an additional suspicion that the famed K03s NEVER existed on ANY VAG platform.

</rant>

to answer your question directly, the ATW engine only had a plain K03.

Default found it.. sorry it was only the 2 blade sizes. But you can find the specs on a k03

and compare them to the k03s numbers that doug has

the turbo he is using (k03s) is off of my car<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/2662350.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/2662350.phtml</a</li></ul>
