I've been thinking about getting one. Is a diverter valve the same as a dump valve? I was also told by 2 mechanics dump valves are no good for the engine and can cause problems. What you lot think?


True.

read the sticky about dump and diverter valves. They different :laugh:

What you think about the Forge 008 then? No go or approved? I just read the sticky quite a good read.  They say a must on a mapped engine. Mines not mapped...YET!

No clue pal, aint had a need to look into it yet.

You need an uprated dv before map, cant tell you which one to choose though.

Think i will just go forge 008 then. If that's what you mean uprated DV.

I would have said buy a 008 if I knew, I dont, I have had no need to look into them, by "uprated" I mean, not a standard one.

007Ps seem to be highly recomended on here. Ive probs done something wrong when fitting.

Yep, or massive co-incidence, which mk4's have a nasty habit of doing!  :grin:
