It depends on what your after a small amount of lag or something that will make some good top end?,Tdo4 will spool very quickly but not flow enough for much more than 280bhp, where as the Tdo5 16g will spool a few hundred rpm latter but is good for up to 350+bhp with carefully chosen supporting mods.

You pay your money you take your choice.

most prefer a td05.
I had a td04 in my wagon which i have swapped for td05. The car feels much better now and pulls all the way to the red line unlike the td04 which falls off quickly after 4.5k rpm. plus youll be able to run the td05 with a z4 map for a safe 254 bhp.
