Bought completely standard, Current spec:

Ebay 3" downpipe
Remapped by myself using WinOLS to 1bar, will raise the boost once I build a 3" exhaust and custom intake

So the diy no aluminium welder needed k04 conversion, started off cutting the outlet pipe because this hits the block

Then ground it down until a 2" silicone pipe was able to fit

Welded up a new turbo outlet pipe to replace the standard pancake pipe

Turbo has done 4,000 miles without any issues so far
