Ok need your guys honest opinions.
I want a dump valve/bov
Any i should steer clear of or shall i really not bother?
Cheers

 

Just dont bother. Period

 

If you want one - get one. I have one and don't give a **** what anyone thinks

 

Exactly...each to there own fella....

 

Do you use £50 notes as firelighters?

 

Cheers
Any brands i should steer well clear of though?

 

BLITZ is the 1 to have if you want the loudest or HKS is good which is more like some1 blowning a whistle if that floats your boat!

 

forge good
bailey bad









apparently

 

Had Forge and Bailey. Forge broke a spring and Bailey has been fine upto press

 

Best way. HKS Super Sequential vote from me

 

Std one perfectly good; VTA one's at the very least get annoying and can cause running issues. I even get a bit of the "Woosh" sound that some people seem to like using the std dump valve; much quieter than with a VTA though, so it's a nice reminder of the forced induction process rather than an attention getting PITA.

If you must go with an aftermarket one, Forge seem to be about the best suited.

Turbosmart are also apparently good and they are adjustable.

 

Apparently not always true. My baileys fine, and loud, but then it would sound great on an RA

 

I have turbosmart, it is as the creature comforts say 'turn off and onable'!!!

I believe they now do one which is in car adjustable so you never have to look at the oily go go thingy!!!

 

Agreed. I get quite a good sound from my Forge recirculating DV

 

pass

 

Of the Turbosmart range
Which is the one to get?
On Demon Tweeks there are 4 to choose from which are Subaru specific
Dual Port, Recirculating, Supersonic and Vee Port
Cheers

 

I know that Dump Valves are a highly emotive subject on SN.

However, I've asked ( in person) some Scooby enthusiasts and, say, the recirculating DV is not as responsive as the atmospheric one.

It dumps it outside the Turbo housing Unit and makes the exchange quicker and more resposive.

It's not about the Whoosh.

Please tell me I'm right, after a lot of thought, I'm having one done Friday!1
