No need for the spacer if you have the forge dv and an itg intake, as mentioned above, mine was loud enough with that combination. Use to scare cyclists with a little dab of the throttle and lift off  :innocent:

I got a bit tired of it after a while though as it sounded like a rally car and my gf was not impressed, its a bit embarassing driving through town with what sounds like a whistle under your bonnet every time you lift off the throttle.

If your a fan of the engine noise then invest in some uprated engine mounts too.

Yeah you can it works with the standard diverter valve just a bolt on, it's roughly £50 from forge am selling mine for £35 PM if you want it

Is this the same one you took off as it was leaking boost?

Dont bother with a spacer. You hear plenty of dv noise with an intake. Plus the dv noise doesnt sound all that nice for a turbo car. More of a bus air brake and nothing like the sound my old rs focus made.
