Just fitted a nice shiney (2nd Hand) Forge Re-circ Dump Valve to my MY00.
Now every time I change gear 'on boost' it sounds like a old rusty gate opening...Sqweeek !!!!

Is it just a case of opening it up and giving it a good grease..or do "they all do that".

It's not waste gate chatter either, as my old Cosworth used to do that, and that sounded sweet.....

 

Just spoke to Forge.... nice chap !!

They are going to Service the DV and get it back to me in a couple of Days.... Cool

 

Mine makes a nice CHING sound when changing at full boost or a CH_CH_CH_CH_CHRST noise if lifting off gently on boost.

 

lol any sound files??
i want a forge recirc one myself as my standerd one is leaking and ive had to lend a mates

 

Cleaned it out lunchtime, to see if it made any difference (as that's what a Forge Service probably is). Still makes the sqweek noise, which may well be how they all sound...just not to my liking at the moment.

I did notice however that is does have a 'RED' spring, so maybe this needs changing to 'BLUE'.

 

Forge are now sending me a full service kit and a 'BLUE' spring....totally free of charge

 

My car is in the garage at the mo so no sound files available as yet.

I have the blue spring in mine so see how it sounds when you have it fitted.
