Swap turbo to K04 + remap and easy 225bhp (as with higher 1.8T cars ie later S3's, leon cupra-r etc)

you would only need a k03s turbo for 225, im running 228 on a k03s safely, thats with my boost set very moderatly, the k03s can take 1.8 bar

read my previous post, the engines are not quite the same, similar block, different turbo, different compression ratio, different intercoolers main differences

250bhp is pushing it for a k03s, you would need to start thinking about bigger turbo at that stage, 235-240 is safe on k03s

you can get 235 with a stage 2 revo remap, with exhaust, downpipe and filter, with a 4 bar FPR
remap will be about £500 quid the rest is where and what you buy really
