Default So,,Which is the best k04 Kit?.........APR,REVO,NEUSPEED,GIAC???.....

Now that the APR K04 kit is here....I was kinda let down when they opted only to have it using Bosch TT injectors & not to have it available using their "APR Big Injectors" which I have on my Stage 1+ setup....So much for saving some cash on using my existing injectors.Plus their K04 kit is surprisingly so much more pricier compared to others...

Which is the best k04 Kit out there? (best bang for the buck)...and is it worth the upgrade+gains from my stage1+ setup???

Now don't say Stage3+ blah blah...If I have that much more money to blow plus a new clutch to match it...I'd buy a B7 instead.

Default Out of those I would go with Revo.

That being said, I've opted for MTM software for my K04 (yes it still has to be installed).

Default The Revo and APR kits use basically the same parts.......

I'm running the TT225 injectors with the Revo K04 kit and it's a nice ride.

So between the APR and Revo kits,...go Revo cuz' it's cheaper and you'll gain basically the same numbers. With the extra cash,...get a testpipe (didn't notice if you had one) to compliment the kit. Judging from your setup,....a K04 kit would suit your car nicely!

Default i'm going with giac when i do mine( wont be for awhile though but thats the plan)

this is because i have the injectors already. if you like to mess around with your settings and psi then you should go revo. if you just want to leave it alone and drive then you may want to consider giac.

Default it says on the link "best when accompanied by ECU upgrade"...

i thought an ECU upgrade was required if you changed turbo's. is that not the case? that seems really inexpensive compared to other turbo's i've seen. is it not that much bigger than OEM?
