You can see how it gets smaller towards the turbo. Bills V3 is 8mm from start to finish.
Makes a huge difference when fitted. One of the best mods Ive made.

Out of interest how much is that Tip?

Post by: D1andonlyantman on 03 December 2013, 22:05: I emailed r-tech not long ago for mod advice before mapping and they specifically said not to use those eBay pieces of junk TIPs. The ones I saw on eBay were around 80 anyway so just throw in the extra 50-70 and get a decent one (in my uneducated opinion)

Sorry, I realise that didn't seem to have much relevance. This is one of the ones they say avoid. Looking pretty similar, that's all

Post by: mcgee9t2 on 04 December 2013, 10:49: sorry yes, forgot the k300 has rs4 compressor and bigger housing not just the compressor wheel and machined housing

Post by: beppe2672 on 04 December 2013, 17:31: yeah the compressor housing inlet will be k04 size

Title: Re: DIRENZA k04 tip
Post by: mar_k on 08 December 2013, 15:11: Very good, I have one.

After speaking with Bill directly, He has said that there would be no noticeable performance difference between the
V2.2 with billet adapter and the V3.

They also come with JCS hi-grip clamps which is great.

Very easy to fit as well.

Title: Re: DIRENZA k04 tip
Post by: mar_k on 10 December 2013, 12:25: I dont think the forge tip is anywhere near as Bills or the SFS 3" tip.

It's certainly not bad though, miles better than that cheap eBay one posted.
Title: Re: DIRENZA k04 tip
Post by: mar_k on 10 December 2013, 13:25: Yes it will be better than the ebay crap.
Not as as large as one of the others.
