Re: vrs dump valve

Ive just ordered a forge fmdv 006, ive read some reviews and this one came out good. I think the standard plastic ones are prone for failing, and leaking air when running higher boost.

Re: vrs dump valve

My old octy still has the original oem plastic one, has been in 5 years now. Changing the to a better aftermarket one will yield no overall performance gains. What you get is a better sound, and maybe more responsive throttle but the BHP/Torque remain unchanged.
