I think most people run a forge 007 recirc valve and not a dump valve as the 1.8t doesnt seem to like them, have you read the section at the top of the page..."can i fit a dump valve" :grin: :grin:
thats why no has replyed to your Q... :grin: :grin:

i think i know what u mean mate. it is a split - r that you have, but by turning the top of it, it will click around 50 times. turning it a certain way will make the piston inside a lot stiffer to move (to retain boost pressure when running a lot of boost i guess?). i've had one in the past, and found that by turning it all the way one way until it stops will either give you a longish dump sound, or give u a 'short and sharp' dumping sound. all depends what way you turn it really and i cant remember myself! there will be a science behind it, but i originally bought mine for the noise  :grin: . i was advised to change to a forge 007p for my remap so sold it. sure someone will be able to explain better for me!

Does that not just make it a fully recirc valve?
Why not just buy a 007p?
