can you blank off the dump valve on a td04 turbo or not? how much of a job is it to shove in a td05?

The map on the ecu is different as well as the turbo, the wagons were seen as more of a family car in japan and had a slight reduction in power to suit, they are 218bhp (220ps) on super unleaded fuel.

Just replace the dv with a recirc type, no more noise so I take it you have a wagon if your asking about a TD05 turbo?
Its not just a plug n play thing, it will cost you a bit to change turbos and upgrade the ecu/map.

I have a TD05 on my Wagon, but just out of curiosity, what is needed other than a change of turbo and the right ECU?

Ah right cool. Is there much difference in the two turbos, what bhp do they both max out on?

Cheers.
