Default Dump Valve Problem MY99

Just fitted fmic and Induction kit to UK MY99 Took it for a drive and it was making some funny swooshing and grating like noise out of the air filter and wasnt running right at all
so i put the OE dump valve back on and it runs spot on with loads of power, the Baileys dump valve is only 3 months old and its a pile of ****e

Wry smile.

You may well be able to adjust the Bailey valve to integrate it with your new setup, but as you've found, the standard item works so well that there's really not a lot of point wasting your time piddling about with the aftermarket one.

Still, on the plus side, you'll probably find someone willing to buy it.
