GFB DV+ Question
« on: July 19, 2016, 12:53:56 pm »
Since you fit the GFB DV+ to the original diverter valve housing, does it matter if you fit it to the rev D piston type or the rev G diaphragm type?

Thanks!

I'll stick with rev D so...

Next question if you know, without a boost gauge (but I do have VCDS) is there any way I can measure my boost on the current rev D before fitting the GFB DV+ so as I can compare?

You can use VCDS to make some logs of the boost pressure. :smiley:

Here's one guide that you can follow: https://www.goapr.com/support/datalogging.php.

Perfect! Thanks @shoduchi

Any idea what range of boost I should be logging completely stock?

@lukemk5gti peak around 12 psi

P.S does this mean you're starting to go down the non-oem modifying route?  :laugh:

Haha not just yet, going to keep her standard but I just want to update a few bits now so that down the line if I choose to I can do without much layout!
