Sensible question. I need a new re-circ dump valve - which one?
 
I bought an MY99 JDM STI5 Type R yesterday and at the moment it's fitted with a god-awful Bailey VTA dump valve. :rolleyes:

Apart from the boy-racer noises it makes, the idle isn't stable and gearchanges under power are accompanied by a big jolt - rather than being nice and smooth as they should. The sooner it goes the better!

My local Subaru main dealer isn't open until tuesday. Does anyone know offhand what a standard Subaru re-circ one costs? I was going to pop in and get a nice new standard Subaru one to put on, but am just wondering if it's worth buying a different re-circ like a Forge etc?

I'm planning to get a Tek3 soon if that makes any difference.

Any advice greatly appreciated. :)

you can pick up standard ones quite cheap secondhand or go for a shiney forge one well pleased with my forge re circ.

Hmmm, that's 2 votes for Forge so far then. :)

Defo Forge Re-curculating and for your own sake dont buy a Vta one.

They only take about 5-min to fit.

Hmmm, just found this on the GGR website. I think I'll give them a call on tuesday, if it's a genuine Subaru re-circ then i'll probably get it. I *think* I remember Bob Rawle saying he was using a standard Subaru re-circ on his modded STI5 and it was fine. I'm sure Forge ones are very good but they're over £100, if the standard one is ok then I'll save a few quid and get that.
