Dump valve problem?
Fitted a dump valve to my 03 sti PPP today, and it really sounds cool!, It scares women and children at traffic lights FFS!, however i now have a slight hesitation when pulling away, do i need bigger injectors,or will a bigger turbo sort out my problem?

Of course you have a slight hesitation when pulling away, you are venting all the air that your turbo has carefully compressed for you.
As you'll soon need a new turbo anyhow you might as well look at the options.

you really need larger than 18" though
oh, you really need to fit a knocklink aswell.
and some gold wheels.
could do with an oil change at the same time, don't forget to disconnect the crank sensor!
