Yeah I guess for something mild they are ok. But they just generate too big of a torque spike and that breaks parts.

thats a rip off

just build your own kit..
gt2871r is pretty nice, if u want quick spool, and a decent power gain.
or go with a 30 series, and go big...


ok. here is a better question for you..
what are u looking to spend. and what kind of power do u want??
that will really determin alot.
and help us out with answering ur question..
cause a ko4 is honestly not worth the 1k u spend on it..

And when it cracks, you'll be SOL. Get a racecraft tubular mani, it is a piece of artwork.

Not all of them crack. there are lots of companies that make decent manifolds, just not cheap.

PPT Turbo Manifolds

just make sure its for a 24v. Cheap, fast, reliable. Pick 2. Just wait for Kinetics 24v Turbo kit to come out.

honestly i swear by APR they make good quality kits that can put out big power and still be driven daily...... They are a little pricey at times but you get what you pay for.

I agree that APR is top notch, but for a budget upgrade, ATP isn't a bad choice.

Yes, well custom VR6, he also makes 20v, 16v and 8v manifolds. I had one of his 8v intake and turbo manis, they were top notch.

Has anybody used a K04 and FMIC on a Passat? Or know anybody that did. Just wondering if it is worth it?

I never got on the APR train. There are plenty of other kits out there that can make more power and be just as reliable.

Umm hate to break it to you but they dont have a 24v kit yet. I was looking at picking up Kinetics new 1.8T manifold, I just dont have the cash nor the need as of right now for a high $ equal length tubular manifold.

It isn't. Most people are VERY dissappointed after going with a K04 on any 1.8t (whether in a GTI, Jetta, A4, etc...).
