Default Difference between standard dump valves?

Can anyone tell me what the differences between the classic model dump valves are (any pics)?

I know the 99 and later years have it mounted to the intercooler. I have a 98 and want to get rid of the vta valve that was on it when I bought it. It makes me sound like a c**t when i'm driving around town.

I'll answer my own question then (after finding out the hard way):

1993-1996 models: The valve is quite small with the pipe work running straight through and the valve body in the centre.

1997 models: The valve is L shaped and slightly larger than the earlier ones.

1998 models: Still L shaped and larger again.

1999 and onwards: Unit looks almost like a tap with a flat base that mounts directly to the intercooler.


There's lots of pics for the early models and the >1999 models but seemingly none for the 1997 and 1998 valves.
