I have ordred some RS4/RS6 HYBRID TURBO,S from Audspeed in Florida.. They cost me about 2000£.. AND WHAT DO I GET.... RS4 REPAIRED OEM TURBO,S

I'm not really surprised unfortunately....

They are saing there are RS6 corer in the part I got from them... But they are NOT bigger than A RS4.. Could that be true?

Matias, K04/RS6 hybrids usually are just K04's with an RS6 compressor wheel. The housings may have been modified to increase airflow, but they will be the same size externally.

Sounds like you've got a bargain... if the compressor wheels are RS6.

It could be true, IMHO.

hybrid implies has parts from two sources. Audspeed could give you rs4 impeller and turbine housings (the casings) which have been scraped out to fit the larger RS6 wheels. It would then be rs4/rs6 hybrid.

other companies will give you rs6 impeller housing with rs6 internals and a modified rs4 turbine housing. It'd also be a rs4/rs6 hybrid.

You could also take a regular rs4 turbo, take it to bits and fit a larger impeller and resize the impeller housing to fit. It too would be a hybrid.

If you are concerned you can remove the housings and measure the wheels to see what you have in there?

This picture was the one Audspeed send me.... I ordred the turbo on the ,right but got the turbo on the left....

Thats the turbo we sent to you MARTIN, RS4 turbo with RS6 chra (center cartdige)

Taking from a email from Audspeed... But they still look like the turbo on the left.. I wanted the LEFT

Have you contacted them about it?

Ohhh yes, but this is what they are saing.. I am wrong here or

tHATS WHAT I SENT, S4/RS6 TURBOS. THEY ARE NOR REPAIRED, THEY HAVE BRAND NEW CHRA

LORT is the same as <beep> in English

How do you know they are repaired rather than brand new?

Do they have the uprated actuator as in the photo?

Martin THIS IS a RS4/RS6 turbo by the size of the wheel I can see

RS6 turbo specs
K04-28 and 29 (RS6 car)


41,86 Inducer (A)
56,08 exducer (C)
56 trim




RS4 turbo specs
K04-25 and 26 (RS4 car)


33,6 exducer (A)
46,02 inducer (C)
53 trim


Your turbo is 100% garantee that is RS4 turbo built in on RS6 wheels (Rs4/RS6), to have more garantee take to a turbo Shop and they will tell you that bolth sides has been machined to fit bigger wheels

Just take the compressor cover out and take the measures of the wheels yourself



They still tell my that I got the Rs4/rs6 turbo.. And this is the left turbo on the picture.. What is the right turbo then???

How do you know they sent you the one on the left?

Have you measured the inlet diameters?

Sounds like a good deal to me, I think if you have a problem they will sort it. good price. usally just straight k04 for that money..... double check.

Darren

Matias, have you got a pic of the actually turbo you have bought, plus measure the size of the inducer (hole in the middle with fins showing) diameter should be 41mm if its rs6, or much smaller if rs4 up to the edges of the fins, going by the measurements you were given
