  • We upgraded to a K04 turbo on this 2012 Beetle 2.0T TSI. This one is using APR K04 software. No doubt this will be a super fun car and a sleeper to boot.

    girl brought in a beetle she bought preowned from dealer a few months old to my old shop (fourseasontuning). car only had like 50k miles, and i was wondering if it was a case that she was riding the clutch. i replaced the clutch, with oem dual mass, and oem disc/plate. let me tell you on the test drive it surprised the crap out of me, i knew it wasn't stock. it had a factory downpipe, but it had a ko4 and tune. that thing was a fun little rocket. the girl didnt know it was previously modified she was wondering why it was faster that her boyfriends mustang.

      it'ts more fun to own GTI's in a beetle. it's a wolf in sheeps clothes, nobody expecting it. Someone in car club has 500+ WHP and is a Porsche killer (not on straights sadly) but hey!
      He's currently working on a tune that get his beetle to a around 600+WHP and but he needs bigger injectors and a Low and high pressure fuel pump to able to get it with a K04 turbsky.
      The reason why he's doing it is because its awesome but also his work to make videos of super cars so he had to keep up with them.

    Wanted an APR K04 since they were their "Stage 3" kits.
    Question for you CO?
    Background: Have Mk5 GTI and Mk6 R, both FSI. Will be going TTE420 on the GTI and TTE480 on the R.
    The GTI is nearing 20 years old while the R is half that.
    Would you recommend using the APR K04 as a starting point to upgrade to TTE or just stock K04 and upgrade?
    The reason I ask is I'm wondering if it would be smarter to be able to use newer plumbing with DV reroute from the R vs. keeping the GTI DV on compressor housing and sound tube. I'd prefer to keep the plumbing stock in each.
    What do you think CO?
    Thanks

      from friends of mine's experience with vw's, K04 or TTE420 are very similar power figures. You really only gain a little bit more overall with a tte420, but the wheel spin on a fwd car with the k04 is nuts. Friend of mine with a mk6 gti was gonna go tte480 or something and ended up staying with k04 instead

    I dont know if you have a video on common problems with each motor rg 1.8t 2.0tfsi newer ea888 2.0t gen2 gen3 differences and problems.. i think you should go thru each engine with its unique problems.. eg 2.0t fsi timming belt cars. The cam followe issue the possible balance shaft seizing problem especially if you revving to 7k and beyond. If you dont know it moves at twice the rpm of the car and is a huge reliability problem and can kill engines because it rides the same chain that drives the oil pump.

      This definitive answer is very interesting. CoMotorsport runs more than 400hp on 1.8 20v with gt3071 and stock (eurodyne) ecu but claims no reason to use k04-064 with. This is really interesting.. but there's no reason why. Once they upgrade head, injectors, pump e rods they can go so far with higher numbers.. maybe they saying 2.0 tfsi engine is beefier than 1.8 20v one? Aaahhhh I do!!

      Lol we're well aware of what a big turbo is. 😉 Also I don't believe I refer to this ever as being stage 3. However if we're getting specific APR references these files as being Stage 3 on their site, so yes it falls under that category. Stage names simply are what the company refers to them as, each have their own layout based on parts and name them how they feel. There is no written book of what stage is what. EQT, APR, Malone, IE, Uni, UM all have their own spin on it. But yes typically stage 3 is larger than OEM turbo's.

APR leaves a ton on the table with nearly every tune they flash it seems. I remember being told with my mk6R when I got it when I thought about retuning, nearly everyone telling me "stay UM or go IE. You'll be disappointed by APR" and they all ended up right.

      Take it from someone who dynos lots of these cars with lots of different software companies. I completely disagree with you. I've had a lot of k04s on the dyno, with pretty much all different providers and using same fuel and on our dyno for comparison and they're all very close to each other. From the most aggressive tuned, to the most conservative. There is only so much power to be had out of a K04, or stock fuelling for that matter. The only major difference is with some of the GLIs, Beetles, and CCs they have weaker valve springs which limits top end power. Most don't know this is a thing but it's facts. Pushing those cars with weaker valve springs will just cause problems. So with that said I would take any of the major providers without thinking twice because I know how they perform. The internet scews things based on different dynos, different fuels, different correction factors etc....all that is the same for us and we see real comparisons. Take that for what it's worth.
