Default Dumpvalve Removal

I need to know if i can safely remove my DV, its a forge and is sodding loud, and am getting annoyed by it. Thing is its running about 300-310 with a front mount on a td04, approx 1.2-1.3 bar boost. Am i gonna wreck something bu doing it?? its gonna be hard work putting a recirc back on as the pipes have no provision for it so would require welding, so can i just atke it off and block the associated pipes??

Thanks Mike

nice one mate, thanks, i did see your post, but assumed you were running the standard vf series, so would have been a no, but as your running a td, i see the relevance now!!! lol
Thanks mate.

yes you can, and you're unlikely running over 300 brake on a td04 at that pressure.

had it on the dyno, running 310.2 290 lb torque. Guages show its running at 1.4 but its a bit optimistic i think, the dyno showed just over 1.2 - 1.3.

Am a little concerned about wrecking the turbo with that pressure going back through it.
