Diverter Valves.... Which one?
« on: 21 February 2006, 11:29 »
Hi all,
I want a diverter valve for my Golf GTI 1.8 T, and i would like to ask all you fellow golf enthusiasts which one is the best for performance?
I dont want that silly sissing noise, but one for performance. I think its the piston type which makes the noise, and the valve type which doesnt. Correct?

I like the noise you can hear as you accelerate away. I don't like the dump valve noise of a quick release of pressure. Will the forge and the baileys still give me that sound that I like?

i havent bid, and i dont enter such wars... i posted on here as i am probably not going to bid as i cant find any mention of this valve on the forge website, id rather pay full price for the 007p brand new, than £20 less for a valve i dont know for sure is gonna fit, ahs been used, and i have to pay for postage too lol as it looks like its gonna break £50-60 odd
