K04 Time -- Build up/info thread (With pics!)
Update 3/4:
k04 installed. No software yet, that is coming tomorrow 3/5.
I have taken the compressor housing off the stock k03 to examine the compressor wheel for damage. Slight damage found, see http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1536173&postcount=168
Update 2/26:

My turbo is on its way out. It is whining like a bitch and is a ticking time bomb. I am going to replace it very soon. Here is the sound its making: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw6xqtwRH9w
Sooo...I have a list of my k04 parts. I have been compiling this list for quite some time and my upgrade will happen much sooner than expected.
I would like to make sure I have all the required parts. Now remember my mods that I already have. I do not need the k04 air intake pipes and the dv relocation parts. I only need parts to bolt a k04 onto the motor...and I am talking everything -- bolts, washers, studs, etc.
I am pretty sure my list is accurate, but I want to make sure so I can put these parts on order so I wont have to place a second order and possibly wait weeks for parts to come in from Europe.
You will also need these parts. I forgot them on my list! Thanks Shazsta for the part numbers.
NOTE: Ignore 06F 133 073 D on the table above.
intake manifold gasket - 06F 129 717 D $20.71
injector install kit (x4) - 06D 998 907 $10.20 (x4)
