would have thought using k04 rs6 turbos would make more sense no? just didnt think k03's running 6-8psi would do anything on a 4.2v8

just my 2p worth
I won't be running k03s in this configuration, that was just an example of what has been done stateside in terms of turbos on these cars. For more info on that particular setup, search TozoM8 on the Quattroworld board.

Most likely I'll be using a Garrett turbo, either an older style T04e T4 based turbo or one of their newer GT or GTx designs. The trick is going to be to size the hotside correctly and sizing the piping so that it doesn't become a restriction while also maintaining decent velocity and therefore maintaining boost levels.
