Dump valves

noellyk

Anyone got experience in buying and fitting a forge 007 dump valve? Where did u get it and how much was it? My car is revo'd and is still running on the stock dv, need to upgrade.

I fitted a forge 007p to my cupra when I got it, straight forward to fit just make sure you get some new hose clamps (jubalee sp clips) as the original hose clips cannot be reused.
Its not actually a dump valve as it does not vent to atmosphere, it recirculates the air back into the intake. It only makes a very slight noise, more noticable if you have an induction kit fitted.
I got mine from bigboystoys in the uk, forge motorsport sell them aswell. Think it cost about 100stg.

What do you drive?

Got a leon cupra R Neil, bought it with revo stage 1 already on it, getting a squealing noise coming from it now under acceleration, reckon the original dv is nackered, have been told i need to replace it and that a forge 007 would be ideal, why did u change ur original dv Neil?

I changed the dv because I plan on getting the car remapped at some stage and the originals give trouble.
