k04-015 billet compressor wheel

[audinewberton]

A buddy of mine went big turbo a few months ago and has a k04-015 he is going to give me for free. I stumbled across a billet compressor wheel for a k04 while browsing the internet the other day. My question is will it fit the k04-015 and will it be worth it, any noticeable gains?

Note, I will be getting a K04 tune for my ECU to put in at the same time of the install.
Here is the link to the billet wheel.http://www.ardideas.com/Billet-Alumi...-77_p_219.html

not all k04's are the same. I highly doubt this will work as I am sure the cars listed use a different model k04

it could probably work because im sure all tue k04 turbos share the same size shaft, but you would have to get you compressor housing machined to fit that wheel. k04-015 compressor wheel size is 35mm inducer/50mm exducer and the billet wheel you linked is most likely bigger.

I emailed them the other day asking for specifications and this is what their response was- "Thanks for your inquiry, I believe this is compatible with your turbo..The dimensions are 45mm inducer and 56mm exducer. It fits turbo # 5304-970-0033".

With that said, I would have to get the compressor housing machined. So that leads me to the next question. How much does that cost, and who can do that?
