Default Skip. If you are going to do that labor get the proper K04 housings IMO.

More reliable and more opportunity for powAh. If you want to go hybrid than get the K04s with the RS6 wheel. now we're talking.

Default And get Virgins...

I can't see doing this amount of labor to install used parts like this.

Default Isn't there a factory turbo that is already a KO3/KO4 hybrid??

I thought I read or heard someone mention that an audi vehicle already has that kind of hybrid turbo? Of course I could be completely wrong.

Default Used? Ahhhhhmmmmm - I would reconsider installing used Turbos in any car.

We've had a loooong discussion at KMD Tuning about Hybrids and listen to several opinions it was not recommended at all.
The Price difference to real K04's inclusive the installation and setup isn't enough to convince a serious car enthusiast to go with Hybrids, specially not used.

Also we'll need to keep in mind that with used parts (if the install isn't a DIY) then most likely warranted work could be sacrifized. Bottom line is: if something goes wrong then you are on your own ;-)

Just a thought......
