Default advice on dump valve please..

hiya

currently have a 96 wrx jap spec...uprated fuel pump..decatted...optimax+millers...running VERY nicely but only has standard recirc dump valve...would like bit more noise..so was thinking about buying dump valve....

loads for sale on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...970109585&rd=1

don't really know where to start....would be willing to pay around £130 and not bothered about second hand...
any suggestions...???

the dump valve issue is massive on here, I used to have a 300bhp nissan 200sx and all the guys that run them use aftermarket dump valves, ive got a forge on my 95 wrx at the moment but want rid of it as im after a greddy, used to have a type s greddy on my nissan and it sounded lovely not the usual rs turbo cossie sound that you get from the forge or bailey, very widely discussed with no real definative answer but I personally take the opinion that if turbo cars only needed recirc valves then someone would have evidence to prove it. I like a bit of noise, and as for street sleeper unless you dont have a ruddy great bonnet scoop nobody is going to think its just a 1.8 with 100bhp.
just my two bits

When you've finished searching, and there's tons on DVs, you'll leave it alone. There are good reasons why the Scoob DV is recirculating. But if you want to spoil a car that you say is running "very nicely" and sound like a Cosworth chav, go ahead
