I have just bought my first impreza and it has a turbo smart dumpvalve which personally i think is a tad chavvy..and annoyin
I want to remove it but i dont have the o.e or a recerc so do i:
a)block off the end pipes and have abit of chatter/stalling
b)get a aftermarket recerc
c)find a o.e one?

I kind of fancy option 'A' but will it hinder the performance and **** up the turbo? i loveee the sound especially combining it with antilag.. yes i know gimmikie but it sounds Sooooooooo nice

 

I would just get hold of a std one. I bet it runs much smoother as well.
What year car is the car there are 3 different types.

Just seen your other post just make sure you get the bolt on type

 

Its a 98 Verson 5... its running standard atm, apart from a full exhaust system

 

I have spare one for sale right now if your interested.
