Hi Guys,

I run a dibilas intake with forge recirculating valve and it makes a lot of noise on hard acceleration and also on lift off. Like a scream. I am thinking of changing to something quieter to be honest.

If you change the forge valve for the latest revision G VAG item that scream / screech noise goes away. I found this out by accident when I changed the forge item for a standard item.

....Reading that^ is enough to make me want a Dbilas! I've already got the Forge DV.

Its not as bad as described and only occasional when accelerating hard. Believe me its a lot quieter than the EVOMS and I am quite fussy about being subtle.

JKM do it for £310 inc VAT. For the cost and hassle of fitting it (you loose the engine cover unless you chop it) you might be better of getting a Carbonio intake. That is unless you dont mind spending more and fitting it.

I dont think the fitting will be rocket science. I'm never minded getting my hands dirty in the past.

I've just read on VWVortex that the EVOM uses plastic pipework? I think for £250+ I could make a better intake kit myself.

Funny you should say that.  As it happened the other way around for me.  Went from my standard 'c' DV to the Forge DV and the harmonic noise went away :shocked:
