Hey Guys

Whats the general opinion on these, is there any significant improvement or very little and alot of noise.

Just interested in to see if they do make any reasonable improvements.

Do the scoobies have any already, and does the P1, or UK300?

There is one on all scoobs, a recirculating one.

They do *zilch* to performance, but they do make a sound.
Save your money and spend it on things that actually make a difference (like a huge wing...18" wheels or something like that. *lol*).

I've got an atmo Forge one, my stock BOV didn't like the upped boost.

Cool

Yup, but that's only true if you're using the MAF sensor.

...and...weeeeee've got a winner.



IMHO, if the stock one isn't leaking, don't mess with it - otherwise get a recirculating aftermarket one.

If you're on the stock ECU (MAF and all that mess) and want sounds, remove the intake snorkus (beware of water ingestion though).

If you've got a link or similar MAP-based ECU, the choice is up to you, but take into consideration that most atmo ones *can* cause odd problems (leaking at idle).
My Forge for instance was a real pain until it got cleaned and some fresh new seals...

If I'd do it again I'd go for an recirculating one.

Now,I know this is going to sound strange but I think the Bailey recirc DV I had fitted on Saturday has benefitted performance! I know it should'nt make any difference but the car seemed to boost up more readily on my way home from Powerstation.Maybe my stock DV was faulty and I did'nt realise it,or maybe it's just my overactive imagination!
