it fit on mine just fine and dandy.. you have to swap the dv/accumulator valve around and plug the hose outlet on the underside of the TIP. Some people have said they couldn't relocate the accumulator because one of the hoses doesn't quite reach it in the new position.. but I never had that issue.

I got an AGU TIP from THS for about £70 delivered I think, fits the K03s nicely as I found out today

I don't think you can keep your engine cover with the AUM version can you?

Think you just need to cut a notch out of the top right corner.

fair enough, sounds like mine and yours are total opposite then.

Although mine looks a bit messy at the mo but that's due to it not having any pipes or turbo in there lol
