Hello. I just got a 1999 RA. What a car. It's in mint condition with 86k. It's going to be my 'daily driver'. I dont do alot of miles, need awd and I can fit the dogs in (thats what i told the missus) so it's the perfect choice!
It's got a Greddy Blitz valve fitted. It's not noisy but I've seen the general distaste for them on here so wanted to get an original. Question: where can i get the original and will it still fit? The Blitz is mounted on a metal elbow on the intercooler. The orignal looks like it uses a hose to connect dumped air back into the ic somewhere? It also ahs a sall bore sensor hose? Where can I find the bits? While the blitz is still on, can i adjust it for max factory boost by turning the nut on the end? Its all standard but max boost I've seen is about 0.8-0.9. Its got a Blitz boost gauge on the A pillar (nice). oh yes... will the gauge still work if i go back to factory dump valve?

 

Any ideas please?

 

Re the nut: most people have found it doesn't really do much, you can get harder springs for higher boost levels

 

OK. what about how the original is connected and where to get one? Does it have a hose back into the manifold or to the turbo?
