I've got a K&N panel filter on mine, makes a little difference - but very little really. Been thinking about having a stainless steel exhaust system as well - so not sure yet if that makes a great deal of difference

lmao at people asking about dump valves on a TDI 
"Since people insist upon asking about these devices, they need to be discussed ... The purpose of a "blow-off valve" or "diverter valve" on a gasoline engine is to give boost pressure someplace to go when the throttle plate is abruptly closed, to prevent operating the compressor in the "surge" regime. Since a diesel engine doesn't have a throttle plate, a gadget like this serves absolutely no purpose and has no business anywhere on a diesel engine. "But I like the cool noise ..." Too bad, this discussion is focused on things that WORK. Even if you manage to find some way to make such a device work, the noise of people "in the know" laughing at you because they realize that it has absolutely no place on your engine will drown out the noise that the device itself makes"

If he's got a corsa 1.5td all he needs is to up the fueling and boost, not overpay for a chip.
