DESPERATELY WANTING TO FIT A VTA DUMP VALVE TO AN MY99.
HEARD LOTS OF BAD NEWS ABOUT THESE IE:***** UP THE FUELING (MOST COMMON COMPLAINT), BUT I BADLEY WANT SOME OF THAT wwwhhhhooooooooossssshh.
BY GETTING A GOOD ONE FITTED BY A PROPER COMPANY, WHATS THE WORST THAT COULD GO WRONG,:NEED RE-MAP?, NEW MAP SENSOR??, OR BYE BYE ENGINE.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT EXPERIENCE YOU GUYS HAVE WITH THESE.

THANKS CARL..

HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD THE FORGE DV FITTED, AND HOW LOUD IS IT..??????

ChrisB

Carl, you'll see a key on the left hand side of your keyboard marked 'Caps Lock'. Press once please

I've had it several months - know people who've had it longer and no issues.

Makes a nice whoooosh sound (not the loudest but turns heads ) and bangs and flames nicely as a result

Dark Blue Mark

Is there any quiet ones? Would quite like to hear it a bit, but thought the Forge was too loud. :-(

To hear it a bit fit an induction kit with the factory d/v

The forge is quieter if you have the red spring inside instead of the blue also..........

RRH

mark,

if you ring forge the nice people there will send you the stronger spring (FOC!!!)- and some metal spacers if required- that will change the way it sounds quite substantially.

i wasn't up for the big whoosshhhy noises all the time; with the spring changed it 'chirps' on lower boost pressures but stil whooshes if you're really trying hard.

hope this helps.

I have the Baily twin piston one fittet. Sounds fantastic. Petrol consumbtion has gone up as everytime I drive the car I keep blipping the throttle to get those fantastic noises.
However on a normal motorway run I havent noticed any differences in consumption at all.
Fantastic flames and bangs with full decat!
Fit and enjoy.

embarrasing on the school run, but ACE all the same!
