At pressures below say 2.0 bar, a K26 turbo and possibly even an RS2 turbo
may be a downgrade to the K24.  I think the K24 is wonderfully sized for the
I5 2.2 liter Audi, again running pressures below say 2.0 bar.  At 2.0 bar
and above, I'd start with a stock RS2 and move to an RS2 Comp if you decide
to get ridiculous...

I have a K26 for sale if you are stuck on this idea...
