ko3 differences?

[shaun_89]

Do ko3's from different models differ in anyway? Like wastgate location or downpipe direction etc for different fitment of models?
Which one should i be looking for for my polo?
thanks

the shape of the compressor and turbine housings varies massively.  You want one from a 150bhp Passat 20vT or a 150bhp Audi A4 20vT (poss same engine in an Audi A6 and perhaps some Skodas too).  Basically the longitudinally mounted 20vT 150bhp engines.

What stops the golf ones being used?

the compressor and turbine housings wont fit unless you want boost pipes and downpipes etc... poking out of the front of the car

Pics (from google image search):





and then, just for comparison, the housings used on transverse engines:
