Able to use VW turbo on 350Z?
Hi All,
So I went from the VW crowd (00 GTI 1.8t) to the 350Z. I sold my VW off with a KO4 turbo upgrade and realized I still have the stock KO3S turbo from it. Rather than buy a costly turbo kit for the Z, I was wondering if I could use the VW's old turbo.
Thanks in advance!

Because I'm cheap! haha
So more expensive to get it to work versus buying the right turbo? What's up with these inexpensive ($150) turbos on ebay? (Duh, it's ebay!)
Thanks

Maybe it's the beer but I was thinking if I could pull off the KO3 turbo in the Z, then money saved and the turbo helped me get some power rather than no power increase.
Just want some inexpensive power. Less than $2k possible?
Thanks again

there is lots of calculators online to assist in your decisions

your compressor isnt on there but if you have the map for yours you can find one there that is similar to check for compatibility
