Dumpvalve / Bow off valve
« on: 12 January 2009, 10:45 »
Hey Guys,

I'm kinda new but I have to say nice forum :)
I have a Golf 1.8 20v Turbo Highline and I want to buy a dumpvalve or blow off valve? Dunno what is best or what
is the diference between the both of them.
Yesterday I did drive in a Mitsubitie Lancer Evo 9 380 awhp and the sound of that blow off valve sounds great!
I searched a bit on internet and saw that they have an HKS blow off valve
But then when I look some videos on youtube the HKS blow off valve on a 1.8 turbo sounds not the same as on the Evo.

Does anyone know how I get that sound, I mean just the blow off sound cause I know an Evo sounds different then a Golf
Do I need to buy an HKS too? Or does Forge got some good blow off valves too with the same sound?

I'm looking for a prety hard sound, not just sst but SSSSJT haha. If you know what I mean :)

Well give me 30.000 and I'll get me an Evo hahaha :D
Nah, just want a loud sound not something you can't even hear inside your car.
So the Forge 007p is the best there is, but doesn't make the sound that I want?
And the splitter isn't that good if we look at quality? Any suggestions?

i have the carbonio CAI kit, it is quite expensive but is very good looking under the bonnet and produces a very nice sound.

Along with this i have the forge 007 valve, which along with the carbonio CAI kit sounds AMMMAAZING

obviously personal preference but i love the sound of my 1.8t :smiley:
