KKK hybrid turbo questions
« on: May 31, 2004, 02:18:13 pm »
I was just comparing the KKK K03 that is on my A3 1.9tdi engine vs a KKK K03 that came off of a passat 1.8T and I noticed that the compressor side of the passat K03 is noticeably bigger.  Is it worth swapping out the tdi compressor for the gas compressor/housing?  The turbine side looks the same to the naked eye.  I haven't disassembled them yet.  Also is it a could idea to swap out bearing housings.  The gas version is also water cooled for extra protection.  I would just swap out the turbine housing sections if the turbines are the same and bam more boost.
