Stick with a Forge 007p, wiill be fine and not cause you any issues unlike a dump valve.

Quieter than some Jap car running 500bhp yes....  1.8 20VT's don't like having all their excess boost pressure released, it's designed to run with a recirculating (diverter) valve so I believe the 007p is your best shot without upsetting the motor.

Yes it is, but any normal dump valve with cause you hassles.

I have the 007p for my mk4 gti and it's fairly loud when using the turbo. Not excessive but you get looks when you give it some  :smiley:

I have the forge 007p on my Passat, been on there over 2 years now and have had no problems, works well.
