is there any difference between this to ie power flow thanks
-
Bill has told me that there isn't much in it to the point that you probably wouldn't notice the difference.
I have the V3 on my LCR

You know it's for a k04 right?

I've just fitted a V2.2 replacing my old V1. Here's some comparison shots also with the standard TIP

The Billet adaptor is supposed to be the key to the flow.
-
what one would yous buy
-
Personally I would always go for a named brand OR one that is tried and tested.
Its like the ones for K03/K03s I would have got a forge but the amount of people using the Creation Motorsports one and the feedback from people made me justify getting the creation motorsports one

I've spent a lot of time reading around the forums. Listening to tuners like Bill and Niki and the TIP is such an important part of your setup. Like has been said there's not much difference between the SFS, B5 V2.2 and V3. However most of the true 300 and beyond K04 and hybrids cars use the V2/2.2. Again the V2.2 is what Bill and Niki recommend and that justifies the extra cost to me.
On the K03 platform cars both Bill and Niki recommend either the SCS or forget TIPs as the CM is more restrictive. Niki posted on FB at the turn of the year that on a car he tuned he swaped from a CM to a Forge TIP and got big gains from the increased flow of the forge TIP. Here's a photo of the Forge and CM side by side that Niki posted at the time. You can see how much the CM TIP tapers away compared to the forge one.

With TIPs like many things you get what you pay for...

Also this thread was posted on SCN about the CM TIPs lately.

It got a little hand bags towards the end!

That link is bad what's happened, but you are always going to get the odd one that's bad, as with all manufacturing processes.
Lots of people (me included) run the CM ones with no issues.
-
I run the THS TIP lol
-
Email bill at badger he will talk you through TIP's I'm general mate just ask the right questions but imho stay away from from CM and go for either forge, sfs or badger5

For a K04 the forge is very restrictive.
