You'll need a fitting kit unless a vehicle specific one comes with the DV. I like Blitz, HKS and some of the Turbosmart DV's but it's all a matter of preference. I'd also stay clear of cheaper DV's unless you want to keep replacing them all the time.

You already have a dumpvalve dude, a recirculating one. Do some research 
But as above, if you do want a vta dump valve (as I'm assuming you want the whooooosh noise), get a decent branded one like a Forge. I had a Baileys one on my old Scoob and it took 6 months for the spring to weaken. Saw a Forge one for £25 and had that bugger instead. Noticeable difference

sorry yea im after the blow off type, so baileys are crap i take it? What about forge? Do i need a fitting kit to install one? Hks and blitz are lil to expensive for me to afford right now, about £100 - £120ish is what im looking to spend.
Many thanx dudes! Den.
