Aftermarket dumpvalves are sh#t!!!!!!!!!!
this aint a question at all i just wanted to add that since ive removed my Forge vta and put the standard valve on theres been sooooooo much improvement! no more lumpy or funny idling, smoother gear changes and much better fuel consumption and all for what...a boy racery 'woooshhhhh' on every gear change. its not worth the noise, trust.

nothing quite like a bit of grease when you have a dump - ooooh errrr!

Wow only a couple of hours and a good response! I think mine could have been leaking, but it has been on my import since I bought it 6 months ago and god know how long before that. Seen a few threads saying they're useless etc so thought id give it a go and change it. Im not joking, but unless my forge was knakered then id recommend getting the standard back on... mpg has shot up bigtime, you get a nice turbo chatter on lift off and dont scare old grannies half to death when passing by and for me it runs alot smoother. It does make sense what magic craig is saying about the air/fuel mix so maybe thats why im seeing a big difference. anyway, im happy

You should slow down and drive like PSLewis, he's never heard his dump valve open...
On mine I only get it to open under very heavy load, when it's really cold !
