I have a bailey no problems so far, I had a forge before before which was a bit to loud for my liking, bailey higher pitched and more subtle. Only probs I have heard off with bailey is a broken spring which is easy and cheap to fix anyway.

Depends on what you want. If you want a loud noise on gear changes/closing throttle, worse fuel consumption and risk of bore wash - get a VTA. If you're running high boost and the standard one's leaking, but not bothered about the rest get a recirc. Forge recirc worked for me

The Bailey D26 (I think) is a twin Piston DV so it won't Leak etc.... they are nice Dump valves, I had one for a year and then wanted something louder....... Get a HKS if you can stretch to it

The cars approx 250bhp, but dont want to lose any power by fitting a dump valve. If this is possible.
