Default Is there a difference between the KO3 accross B5 and B6 A4s?

On a related subject, could you put a KO4 that you would get from a B5 kit in a B6? True you would have to have someone with the right software but I am talking purely hardware. Are there any differences? I am completely ignorant about the B6 engine layout and whatnot. Thanks

Default Hmmm, well, between 2000 and 2001 (B5), something changed on the K03.

Not sure whether the turbos from each are interchangable, and what effect (if any) software between different model years might have if you were transplanting turbos. Best thing to do might be to call AWE, since they sell K04 kits.

still waiting on someone to take the two blowers apart and verify the differences (if any) :-)

Default Actually the turbo changed from 99.5 to 2000 and then again in 2001.

If you look up the part #'s there will be 3 different K03's, you will find a non dbw, a 2000 and then a 2001. Look at the last letter in the part #.
