dont bother removing it unless you want a knackered engine/turbo.

yes it probably sounds smart (ie it has the chirping a rally car has) but it knackers your tubro up faster that putting a chocolate fireguard in front of a raging fire.

just what i have read on here

up to you though

Guy, if there were ANY performance benefits at ALL, either Subaru themselves, or Prodrive, would remove them.
They don't. They are there for a purpose, and it's not to make the engine make less noise.

End of.

From what I've been told the TD05 will run fine without a dump valve.
