hi guys fitting my new front mount at the weekend just want to know if i can still run the standard rec valve ? its a version 2 sti

Peter

 

yes you can, or alternatively you can run without any dump valve.

 

cheers fella is there any advantage to not runing the rec valve or dump valve

 

No dump valve you say!?!

What sort of chattering chrickery is this you speak of!

Coming from a VTA, DV'less seems smoother and more responsive on the gear change.
And with right induction mods it makes a wicked noise, which is a pleasing change from Psssssssssssss!

 

i must admit im not a massive fan of the waaaaatisssssssss sound which is why i fitted the standard valve back in over the dump valve the car came with im interested to see what it will sound of go like with no valve in it

 

What Turbo are you running ??

 

td05 16g

 

90degree entry

 

Your good to play then.

 

Once the FMIC is fitted, you will be having the map checked, won't you?

 

TD05s are pretty tough turbo's but I'd still be a bit wary of running without a dump valve. It can only increase the wear rate on the bearings. I'm running no DV on a 321T but that's a different ball game

 

think im going to stick with the standard valve, will be looking to fit a ESL live board later on in the year

 

And the map?
