It was the RPM triple C show. Mainly Volvos and Fords, but the guys on the R forum decided to have a club stand for the day.  :happy2:

Quick update,

Popped down to Statller and decided to give the Turbosmart diverter valve/blow off valve a go on a more permanent basis. This DV/BOV is designed to run as a normal DV at part throttle when lifting off so that the car runs smoothly in traffic etc and at high boost/WOT when lifting off acts as an atmospheric BOV. This is a great piece of kit and a proper "boys toy!"
The sound when it is letting off from high boost is great.....loud without being deafening. Not something I am used to, but it is needed to help expel all that excess boost without killing another throttle valve.  :scared: :laugh:
One of the good features is that you can decide if you want it to be entirely a DV of part DV and part blow off. It holds boost very well too. Photo below is the best I could get off the phone camera......31.8psi
