you've still got the standard valve haven't you??  i thought that worked best for an AGU?  :undecided:

remember your power curve - nice and smooth - one of those could upset that  :undecided:

only way to tell whats the best is to buy them all and hire out a rolling road for the day and see what produces the smoothest, most consistent power  :nerd:

True ^^^

Rumour has it, that's just a tarted up 'H' spec valve, mate. ;)

Stage 1, I would stick with your C (F - AUM). :)

Stage 2, then look at J's & H's. :afro:

I'll look forward to that.  (Although IMO, he would have to test them all on loads of different cars/set-ups etc., as I'm sure that diff cars will take to diff valves, better??). :undecided:

I've just taken my N75 J off as the ECU was cutting the boost back at about 5250 RPM in 3rd & 4th gear.  (Throwing the code 00575 up).  It's a bit of a weird one, TBH.  I've had the J on since late January & have never felt an issue with it or had a code come up (in fact it pulled a bit harder lower down the rev range).  Then a couple of weeks a go, when I fitted the new Forge TIP - it was pulling even harder, but then was cutting back the boost at high revs.  I thought great.............  The TIP isn't on properly.  Did this quite a few times, but this was when I discovered the worn clutch.  Anyway, clutch went in yesterday & I was still getting the 'dead spot' along with the 00575 code.  I haven't touched the new TIP since I installed it, but put the N75 C back in this morning before going to work & the problem hasn't come back since. :huh:  Wonder if the J needs a little bit of a map fettle....................................................................???

Yes, I just don't know why it favoured the newer Forge AGU TIP over the SFS AUM TIP?? :undecided:  Perhaps because I fitted the Forge one myself & did it properly with no leaks??!! :D :huh:
