they advertise the bailey dump valve saying the atmospheric type dump valve will prolong the life of your turbo.

is this not true?

If you want the noise, get a VTA and accept the loss of economy on a cruise (as it can't act as a bypass valve) and the overfueling on the overrun when its open.

The stock part does a perfectly good job of protecting the turbo and helping with fuel economy.

The choice is yours!

Out of curiosity, how much of a loss (ish) are we talking about?
