You're greatly appreciated because you share great wisdom, helping folks to maintain & repair instead of blindly hoping for expensive dealership help. Please continue being who you are!
I love your explanations...I actually have to rebuild my CTS turbo I've had it 3 yrs and I had a kink in oil supply line...so now I'm gonna rebuild it and make sure the oil supply line is perfectly round
Your a kook how obviously knows his stuff regarding turbos. Very informative. I’m having a CTS K04 installed on my B8 2.0. next week along with a CTS intercooler, Cts down pipe w/high flow cat, integrated engineering aluminum intake, CTS intake and stage 2 tune. Hoping to beat my wifes TTS. GLACIER WHITE.
@@NaptownTuner First of all, I really enjoy your content. It’s informative and fun. Also not sure how you can basically dismantle the engine with one hand while the other hand films it but it’s awesome to watch! On to my question. I’m looking at doing a K04 upgrade on my B8.5 A5 flex. You’ve talked about CTS’s turbo solution but do you have any thoughts/experience with the other K04s (APR, HPA, JHM)? I personally think it would be worth while if you created some content on the different K04 options. But my opinion is a bit biased :)
Black . Your videos are so informative, been watching a lot lately and gave me more confidence to work on my a4 2.0 , thank you for sharing your experience/knowledge.
Ha! Eureka! There's a You: Napping, Towning, Tuning....being sincere, in the most humorous way!!! Your excellence is way appreciated....all us Audi people really ever wanted to be was; 'smart'. Thank you...I will make all Audi and VW, and applicable people in my life watch this channel...cuz it's smart.
Blue. Love the clip, wish my audi guy would have told me about this. Now its down with a timing tensioner fail with bent valves. Thinking of these upgrades. I like your style bro
Helios Blue, Monza Blue, Pasadena Blue, heck any thing starting with LA5. Let's see if this makes sense. Nice to see the humbleness. Best of luck from London, UK.
holy crap that clip is clutch asf! thankfully I could buy a turbo if I needed to, but I'm tryna do the clip first, literally a 5 second job! unfortunately the engineers just HAD to put the wastegate rod in the worst place possible BLUE
Thank you so much for your videos. I have a 2007 Audi a4 quattro 2.0 twin turbo. Your videos are so helpful and I have learned a lot. You are appreciated.
@@henryjohnson7278 ok haha I didnt know that was a thing that's very interesting I thought u were saying it came like that from factory haha. Do you have any issues with it now that its twin turboed?
Just came by this as I finished rebuilding and installing a "new" turbo. Ended up going to the dealership to get some upper manifold studs and nuts so I could replace those. having the gasket properly lined up wth the 2 farthest studs helped so much and having the bottom support blocks slightly loose but only a few turns from being tight. definitely helped with having it lined up, before it was possibly misaligned and ended up just sounded like absolute crap, I could tell there was some boost being built as the negative pressure was showing on my guage going near the positive side. But not enough to actually spool the turbo enough to activate the bov. As I am writing this it is now almost all put back together. just waiting for the rain to stop so I can get everything checked over
I was replacing my gasket on my test pipe and since it was exposed I could see and spin that gate around and knew it was definitely lose and when I turn my car off I here that little rattle come from my intake like you mentioned with the borescope how it will do that. I’m going try that clip first and see if I get lucky and see if it stops spinning.
Magenta😂. Cool video, and helps explain alot, keep them coming Naptown👍. I'm getting my 2010 Audi A5 2.0TFSI rebuilt with forged pistons and rods as i write this, and am looking to get a K04 for it, or maybe now investigating the Boss500 turbo kit. Have installed large front mount and dump pipe, upgraded all intercooler pipes, diverter valve, muffler delete, pcv and external catch can, coil packs etc. Oh and coilovers are in transit too🤭
AussieTeck Great video once Aagin.You call it as it is no BS. Very knowledgeable Dude thats for sure.Thanks for your time and detail information. Keep on bringing great videos...All the Best from Down Under.
Hey bud. I’m new to the older q5’s. Got a part number on that quick fix clip for the turbo? I know mine is suspect. Thanks for the help and info in advance!! 🤙
Naptown, are you still making videos? Do you respond to your comments? I have an A4 2.0 Quattro B8 S-Line & I think I am going to need one of those turbo clips. It hasn’t thrown the code for a while, but I’ve gotten the under boost a couple times. Where do I find that clip? I haven’t ever even looked around at my turbo, but I think it’s possible to get that clip in place w/o taking the turbo out right? Maybe some stuff taken out, a hand contortion move, & some foul language should get it done Yea? Also, do you sell and/or rebuild turbos for these engines? My car has 157K miles & when I get around to checking on my turbski, I may find it could be needing replaced. If your still around & sell parts, I may need one & have a core to return.
@naptowntuner . How many times have you seen that wastegate actuator rod clip temporary fix PO299 code? thanks. Lately like green color the most :). Thanks for the video
have you ever used a ebay turbo for any of your applications? Just want to know if there are other options. and before anyone says you get what you pay we all dont have $2000 just laying around. Thanks. oh midnight blue
Blue. I have a question for you. I have a 2012 audi a4 quattro 2.0 and I just did a new piston and rings and sent the head out for a rebuild. I want the turbo to work correctly before I put the engine back in so I'm thinking a k04 but do I really need a tune if I keep the oem injectors? And do I need a new intercooler? I did already buy the new down pipe. Cat delete. Thanks
Matte Black -- I found this looking for stuff around the TFSI K04. I have a 2013 Manual Quattro A4, and I am debating between the K04 and the 'Boss 500' turbo. Tuning options for the Boss seem hard to come by compared to the K04, so that will probablly be what I end up with. I also have a 97 Nissan 240SX on it's second KA24DE, running a T3/T4 Turbo. When I turn up the boost it is about 340-350 hp. You speak my language for the purpose of both cars.
Hi there I put castles pipe in my 2.0t Jetta first had lotssss of white smoke and now engine code for the cat sooo what should I do I researched on line but everybody tells something else tks
Video is kinda funny, lol. And when comparing the outlet on the k03/k04(cts), they have that outlet cuz they used to use factory s3 BW k04-064, so they had to modify the outlet since its from a transverse car. Not cuz of flow, etc. They no longer do this, and offer a new k04-1070 which has a factory style outlet now.
Will you be putting a turbo clip on your new turbos wastegate? I’m on the fence about a used Ko4 turbo I can buy for half the msrp you mentioned. It has 5000 miles on it & I haven’t checked the wastegate yet.
I have a 2011 A5 with 115k miles just pulled a 0299 code and they quoted me $1800 for a stock turbo and install, was thinking of getting the CTS k04 for 1300 and upgrading...thoughts?
@NaptownTuner Do you have a part number or technical name for that Turbo wastegate arm clip? I want to pick up a few of them and install them for some Great PM. I did not know about this clip, AWESOME KNOWLEDGE SHARE!!!
Black, 😂😂 thumbs up for your vids. great info u got there. just wondering have u tried mounting ur Garrett turbo to your Q5? I’ve got one laying around in my garage but didn’t know what to do with it so I was wondering how big of a hassle or is it even possible to mount it on a Q5 2.0 B8.
That was for an sr20det I swore I would never get into 4cylinder after all my experience with low rpm power / low displacement drift car stuff but after doing all the work on this engine/ car I do like it and it makes for a great compromise for power to fuel economy and how the power comes on with direct injection. The K04 is as big as you’d want to go for a turbo in my opinion and a stage 2 tune is also very nice
I put a hpa billet k04 on my 2009 Passat variant r line with a cts turbo intake and full 3 inch straight pipe and when I get into boost at medium throttle my DV valve opens and closes like it doesn’t know what to do. Is this because I’m running a k04 on a stock tune?
My 2012 audi a5 B8 K03 pushes 25psi of boost when I throw it in manual and gas the gears. Is this a lot? I feel like I have not seen anyone with that much. Its a rebuilt turbo looks brand new I got it from my warranty company for the wastegate rattle and audi installed it. I have IE stage 1 93oct.

Great comparison video. I didn't realize CTS also used Borg Warner parts to start.
is the best option

Twin turbo?

Hey I have a question, does the wastegate clip fix the loud bike-chain-like rattling sound?
No... It is made to prevent it from occuring.. But naptown tuner has a fix for that...
Tough one. Grey, royal blue, burple, crimson red, turquoise.

My FAV color is GREEN....The color of Money....and life, vitality and that sort of thing
you should do a vid taking the turbo out from the top, id love to see that
I have red a4 b7 6speed ,but this is good info as I'm new to this. Keep up the content man..😎 the color is Purple.
That Turbo looks cool, but you know what's cooler. The 2 KO 4s. Borg warner, that I'm putting on my Audi a 6 right now.
Most blues 😊 thanks for your videos
Green
And thanks for the side by side
Estoril Blue. Thanks for the info man...another great video!
Blue thanks for showing the benefit of the clip on the k03.
Where can u find clip?
White, also could you go through the turbo variants offered for the 2.0 VW/Audis. IS20 vs IS38 vs KO3. Thanks a ton for all the great info!
Forced Hi Flow cat users thumbs up, straight pipe comment!
Blue! - Why is the CTS Turbo better than the APR K04 setup?
its a real k04
Hey bud. I’m new to the older q5’s. Got a part number on that quick fix clip for the turbo? I know mine is suspect. Thanks for the help and info in advance!! 🤙
Another great video!!! orange/purple.
I put an endoscope into the 1st oxygen sensor hole. Yep, my wastegate isn't tightly shut. I'll be ordering one of those clips & rechecking!
fav color is now nardo grey, project for summer, wrap some part of my car in nardo grey and see how hard it is
im now a proud owner of a mark 5 gti manual 2 door
That k04 sure looks nice! Find it a good home
I keep waiting one day when the newer 8.5’s gets cheaper or maybe I’ll get around to manual swapping a nice avant

Great video brah ! Great information! Thank you for sharing!!! Riding RED til the end
Navy blue, question. Where did you get the K04 from?
love my k04 dayli drive
Can you modify or cut that turbo muffler off?
can i install that waste gate clip without taking my engine apart or taking my turbo out?
Very helpful.
Thank you.
I want to change the turbo on my A4 TDI 2.0L
It hardly makes any turbo noises and I think the wastegate has gone.
I get stereo and very good playback during your intro song at the front of this vid.

Always loose linkage in my experience
@@NaptownTuner hissing sound at low speeds on the throttle when cold. 2099 intermittent.
@@kennethj816 still loose wastegate linkage
Thanks, you're the man.
Brilliant Black 🤘
I have a question will the clip fix my leak sounds like a whistle at 18lbs of boost my diverter valve is brand new
Good job man I have a 2012 A5 that's going to need a turbo soon and I want to put the CTS K04 X on it will you do video on what I might need
Out of the 4 choices which Ko4 kit do you recommend Unitronic, S3 APR, cts ko4, or cts ko4-x Hybrid
Where can we buy these wastegate clips, NaptownTuner ?
Grey is my favorite color
what's the difference between these one and the Hybrid X?
Great vids. Is the recirculation also known as the diverter valve?
yes

Too many miles wasn’t worth an engine so I still need to pull the newer kyb struts from it and a few other parts, parts car
Now that I'm in the Audi world Naps my go to for info walked me through my first timing gig
Midnight metallic blue 👍🏼
Do they make that turbo clip for the turbo of an A4 B7?

Mines blue where can I get those clips I have underboost issue on my 2014 a4 Quattro s-line package
i dig that intro, did you make it?
I’m not computer literature like that, one of my older brothers payed someone to do it and gave it to me.
What turbo do you recommend for a Audi A6 2.0 TDI 2008 140 hk?
I have a automatic transmission.
I put a hpa billet k04 on my 2009 Passat variant r line with a cts turbo intake and full 3 inch straight pipe and when I get into boost at medium throttle my DV valve opens and closes like it doesn’t know what to do. Is this because I’m running a k04 on a stock tune?
How do those compare to the IS12/20/38 turbos?
Can i get a link from where you got it
Just watched the end my fav color is black
Directly from CTS I think it’s called boss k04
It’s not described but I believe it’s ball bearing vs the cheaper Journal bearing k04’s
Where might one buy that clip?
My 2012 audi a5 B8 K03 pushes 25psi of boost when I throw it in manual and gas the gears. Is this a lot? I feel like I have not seen anyone with that much.
Its a rebuilt turbo looks brand new I got it from my warranty company for the wastegate rattle and audi installed it. I have IE stage 1 93oct.
25psi I push on my q5 2016 with jb4, but at low rpm, on high I will just push heat
