Go K04s with chip. No brake-in required for turbos.

I would love to, but I'm still under warranty so I'm not paying for the turbos.

When you are under warranty and you do get Ko4s is there any change in warranty?

A chip violates your warranty with/without K04s, if you're honest about it.

Default Get Jacob's K03/K04 or KO4/16v2's They use the KO3 housings and stock plumbing

if you don't ceramic coat the turbine(out)side you'd not be able to tell the diff. unless you pulled the turbo or inlet piping.
