standard recirc valve
 
Hi all just bought myself a 96 wagon, fitted panel filter, decat and polar performance ecu. I am only making .9 bar boost and should be making around 1.1 bar. I did a boost leak check and the standard dum valve was leaking at .8-.9 bar. So is my old type valve worn out ? What pressure can the standard One take ? Seen a couple of second hand legacy twin turbo ones , one orange label, one blue label are these any better. Cheers in advance.

.2 bar could be an inaccuracy on the boost guage. What sort is it, needle or digital? What did you use to test the DV?
As a quick test you can remove the DV, block both holes off (with any thing suitable) and go for a quick test drive. If your boost improves then the DV is fudged.
