Don't know why people call them Chav valves. If you like the sound of the VTA dump valve then stick with it. It's the same with ALS, just because everybody jumps on the band wagon with stuff, doesn't make it Chav. I happen to like both and certainly aren't a Chav. Decide what you like and stick with it

I'm sure I've seen you wearing Burberry though...
I think the standard valve does make the car run better and nearly all mappers recommend it but you can use a VTA valve if the map is 'optimised' to take that into account.
Some VTA's especially the Bailey ones are absolute cr@p, I know from experience as I fitted one to my Hawkeye and then fitted a Forge valve which was a lot better.

I removed my Blitz dumpvalve a few weeks ago and blanked it off. Much prefer the sound now personally, but i never really disliked it anyway. Personal choice at the end of the day whether you are a "chav or not"
Havent got used to it being off yet its been on the car since i bought it just trying it without it when i had it remapped Duncan told me they dont make much difference theres a good chance i be putting it back on

If you like it keep it, you don`t wear polyester trousers on a weekend
It is really a personal choice as to what you like and prefer, and it will at least be a working item rather than someone I heard of who for Rally Day was going to fit a FMIC without any kind of map alteration just so it was 'on there for the show'. 
Now how sad is that?

But will be done soon enough, but I really didn`t know that considering doing something (but not actually doing something) can be sad??
Its only lack of a job so no income thats holding me back, and that is hopefully NOT going to continue.

As sad as someone who has an apparently quick car but gets easily overtaken by a 2.0 Sport on the twisties cos he can`t drive lol.

ps have you learned not to attempt to overtake on blind downhill corners yet?
If I could be bothered to reply to your usual atagonistic load of old twaddle then you would get a much longer response than this, but remember you should not let envy get the better of you.

Again quoting something you didn`t see, and clearly can`t remember the REAL event explination, yet again
It must of been my obviously furtive imagination which saw you desperately braking and trying to get back into the nearside lane.
I saw it very well, there was only one car between your car and mine and I could see the near accident unfold in all it's detail, I could see the corner coming up and you attempting to follow Richard's car (if I remember correctly) in overtaking the cadet minibus.

The fact that there was clear space between myself and the cars following, and the driver of the car DIRECTLY behind me asked "What happened, I didn`t see anything apart from a cloud of smoke. I was looking for someone in a hedge!!" kind of speaks volumes, you must wear your pants over your trousers and can see through hedges and hills.
And if it had been ONE minibus it would have been ok, but the fact I judged there not to be enough room to take the TWO, I made the decision to not be daft.
But back on topic, I`d keep it on.
