quote: I personally find some cars with atmospheric valve sounding gay. e.g cossie, punto with a bailey or collins. I did like mine but it was crap on performance as far as I was concerned. | |

quote: yes maybe, but fitting a dumpvalve wont solve that atall. if they did prolong turbo life then they would be fitted as standard. the reason is that there turbo is too small for the boost they are shoving through it. | |

quote: Yep i know - and on the Pug DTurbo, i know of 2 people who have had to have their turbo's replaced since having their boost uprated. The conclusion was, that the increase in air pressure cause turbo damage + failure. Niether had a dump valve. | |

quote: ah but they still have a function. dont forget turbo cars draw a vacuum when you lift off the throttle, this will slow the tubo down even more than not having a dv atall. | |

quote: No mate - i dunno wot kits u've seen or heard, but mine is alot louder than ANY petrol cossie or scooby i've heard with one (although i turn mine down). However, it purely comes down to how much boost ur at. Even as standard, TDs make alot more boost pressure than petrol cars, and use exactly the same kind of DV, so there isnt any possible reason for them to sound different. Matt | |

as for mech or ecu controlled, you an get kits for both. personally i think they are counter productive though and quite silly. | |

the plumb in as normal, they use something like an egr valve connected to the vacuum from the servo. yes they are pointless, they lose speed as they dump all the boost so the turbo has too spool up again. | |
