Yep, the k04 that comes straight from Borg Warner. Now, Porting it, makes the hole bigger in which case it becomes a kHO4
The CTS kit is a true Borgwarner correct?

The F23T is based on a cheap Chinese replica.

My experience is with APR K04 tune and turbo and on the v3.1 I have pulled on many cars I shouldn't pull on based on advertised numbers. The car is nuts.

Just because you stretch out her hole doesn't mean you have the right to call her a ho.

I somewhat regret going with an F23. The power is fantastic, but I think I would probably prefer the peace of mind of a K04 with slightly less power over the questionable reliability of the F23. That being said, it could last me the life of the car, or it could blow the next time I go for a good 3rd gear pull. Only go with the F23 if you're willing to work through potential issues that might occur, and be prepared to get a custom tune.

Your input is greatly appreciated, I'm protuned already, so custom tuning is no big deal in my book, I prefer it over a OTS tune myself.

I'm not trying to scare anyone, but i just want to be fully informed before making a purchase my man. Like i said i was 200% dead set on it, but after a few conversations with different people, i wanted to get some 1st hand experience.

With that said, be happy with whatever you got man, different strokes for different folks!
