Has anyone got any pictures showing whereabouts dump valves are fitted? How easy are they to fit and what are the pros and cons?
Cheers
Mark

There is a dump valve fitted as standard so it is more a case of whether an after market model would provide an improvement.

The standard dump valve is of the recirculating type so is quiet in operation. Most aftermarket dump valves vent to atmosphere and give the whooshing noise that you will have heard.

You will probably find a variety of opinions as to which type perform best but your decision will probably come down to whether you want the noise or not.

Hope this helps.
