Yours is the flange mounted type, so you either need an adaptor or go to Baileys or Forge and get the right one for the job, the early flange type have three holes in a line, your ater one has the vent hole offset.

A vent to atmosphere for the characteristic noise will make the car run less well and use more fuel if thats why you want one!

I'm sure you'll get plenty of advice on dump valves here before too long! :lol1:

i think that u will have the one wif the post box scoop yes? anyway i dont know what stuff you have over in the ukim in NZ but if u can get your hands on a turbosmart vent/plumbback BOV(or dumpvalve) or a HKS SSQV then u will be set. good luck on the quest for power. and y do alot of you gyus believe in the gimmicky ecu chips nd increased fuel mods and turbonators(i think that that was just one messed up person) but still.

you dont have to mount the BOV rite on the intercooler, iv seen plenty of them wif pipes coming off the intercooler and the BOV off to the side. just as effective and then u can fit whatever type you want

If you look at the engine bay from the front of the car you will see your existing standard dump valve on the front of the intercooler at the right hand side. It is held on by 2 bolts. If you want a replacement you just need one with the same triangular base with 2 bolt holes. Be careful when you remove the existing one as it has a thin gasket behind which may drop off and you need this for the replacement to ensure no boost leaks.

Any sold as being suitable for newage 01> is fine as they are all the same on newage.

Waste of money IMO, but if you want one then check the for sale forum on here as they often come up as ppl get sick of them.
