Jake your running a standard DV you need to upgrade it. The standard DV can only run upto around 11psi or 1.5 bar. A remap takes your boost to about 18-20psi and your standard DV will buckle under that pressure. I'd advise you get a forge 007p or 008.  You will also need a yellow spring installed

I got mine from ebay, however there are many places that sell them, if you can look to buy a brand new one and get the 008 and expect to pay about £130

picked car up from garage about an hour and half ago and shes running sweet just like she was a couple days ago, turns out was just a pipe blown off somewhere on the inlet!! they put the pipe back on cleared all faults and job done, sourced a black forge 007p with yellow spring from autograph in burnley and pick it up tomoro theyve done it me for the same as there going for on ebay so im chuffed, should be straight forward enough to do shudn't it ?

Dead easy to fit mate. Remove engine cover undo the jubilee clamps holding the standard valve and replace it with you forge valve.

If you still aren't sure there is a PDF on the forge website showing you exactly how too.
