Default Hey wheres the best place to buy Ko3's.

I cant afford 10k to go stage 3. Unless you can run ko4's on ko3 software?

Default I see, yeah I just did that job on mine...didn't have the money for stage III since i'm in college

so I just replaced with K03's. I would suggest picking up a fairly low mileage set from someone on here possibly, that's what I did. Picked up a set with like 12,000 for 200 shipped. As for your question, you can just do K04's right now, and upgrade your fueling and software later on. All you would need is K04's and inlets.

Default Well, I'm not an expert, but from what I have picked up on here, most people run

GIAC-X chip with MBC...you would essentially be stage 3- if i am correct?

You can get an FPR, and a MBC and hook it up in parallel to control boost spikes.

Default No. K04's will run fine with K03 programming. You only need FPR, etc, If you are going to push

K04 boost past K03 boost with stock fueling.

Default You can absolutely run K04s on K03 software

only thing you may want to do is throw a MBC in parallel with the N75 to cap spikes.
