Can I ask why you want to replace a fully working item which was DESIGNED for your engine, for one which wasn't and can cause engine and running problems?

PLEASE don't say, "I like the noise..."

Do it! Do it! Do it!

They sound amezzin, make all the girlies moist and are easily good for 23ibhp!

Firstly, how do you know its bleeding on full boost?

Secondly, why do you want to replace it with an atmospheric dump valve rather than another OE or recirc valve?

PLEASE say, "I like the noise..." haha

Yes, replace with OE item, your car will thank you.

You may not KNOW you have over-fuelling, but the car will......

You could have got an upmarket, Forge etc recirc valve.

then your fuelling would still be OK, you wouldn't get borewash and contaminated oil etc etc.

Still, if it attracts the girlies.......

Ive heard that if you fit some stickers down the doors and a stick on roof scoop then it fixes the fueling issues that come with fitting a dump valve.

Well best of luck with it then! Each to theyre own and its your car, so whatever tat you want to adorn it with then fill yer boots!...... see you in a few months when your trying to figure out why it wont idle for toffee!

Word from the wise however is that there are underlying issues with trev valves which slowly make themselves known ..... and over time your likely to have fuelling and idle problems ...... if this was for a performance gain, that could almost be justified, but the fact is trev valves on a maf'd car are nothing more than vanity (if the pssshhhhh floats your boat) ..... no performance advantage, long term potential to cause problems, all for a little noise on gearchange. Ridonculous!

You will soon learn that TubbyTommy is a C*nt, but you will learn to ignore him also.... it will be hit and miss with an atmos DV, some will run fine others will over fuel, if you want to take the risk go for it but if not play it safe and replace with a like for like item...

now now gash be nice and just to correct your WRONG advice

all will overfuel as a recirc dumps air back into the cars intake to which the car fuels for so vta causes overfuelling on all vta dump valves as the air is not going back into the intake but the car is still fuelling for it anyway
