What Dump Valves Are People Using?
« on: January 17, 2016, 11:41:16 pm »
Hi all!

I'm after fitting a dump valve to my mk5 gti but unsure what to go for. From reading up I've found that most people are keeping clear of the forge spacers. So what other options are available?

Cheers, Dan!

VW Revision G diverter valve.

If you want noise get an aftermarket intake.

As above, get an intake, add a remap and you'll have all the noise you want

Yeah I've been looking through the forum and everyone seems to go down the intake route. The Ramair one looks good value too so I might have to invest in one of those.

Does it make the car more thirsty though?

The O.E Revisions are good but once you start tuning your vehicle then you really need to look at maybe a Forge Item.. They certainly hold boost alot better over the Stock valves

There must be many tfsi owners with blow off valves on and not complaining as I did it to my tt but got fed up of the bailey dump valve as it was mega loud so changed thay for a Forge recirculation valve. When I replaced the turbo tip to 3inch and fitted a cone filter to that is when I heard a lovely sound from the filter sucking in and whossssh whossssh  :jumping:

I have this spare if anyone is interested.

No chance.  The stock valve is far better.  Do you have any proof that the Forge is better at holding boost than a stock G valve?

I've just fitted a Neuspeed P-Flo intake to mine as i wanted some extra noise and i'm truly amazed at how loud it is. Really no need for a DV with one of these intakes.

Not that I've noticed.
