thats worrying .......

A few people have said that but the car runs perfect, like i posted on the forge section, the recirc dump happens before the atmo dump because the exits are at two different heights to one another so maybe i'm getting the noise through my induction kit and then the blow off?? Either that or im talking crap and it just aint set up right but thats my theory so far...........:shrug:

What mods are you running? Are you remapped?

the re-circ and atmo trumpet seem to be swapped.....and if i push up the piston it looks as tho the valve would release air to atmo first.....when forge say it should re-circ first...does anyone else have one to compare to???????

The image hasn't been flipped, look at the writting on the box it's standing on.

nothing wrong with that?? but multiple posts saying something is wrong without even testing it on a car?

Because i would not want to f**k a car over IF the valve is wrong...the fact is im sure the way mine is set up it will dump to atmo first..and just wanted sombody ellse with one to post a pic!! apologies for posting on a forum which is primarily used for helping people with the odd problem!

its a diverter valve....at worst you'd suffer a loss of power because boost was being leaked and a fault code appear and then you'd know it was the wrong way round and you already stated the trumpet is removable so you could do it yourself???

hardly a mass murder

Mine is the same as the Forge photo mate......looks like yours is the wrong way round. If you plumbed it in as it is the blow off would be facing your bulk head?? They should definately recirc first, I wouldnt like to guess if these things can be run either way round like a 007 as its a whole different internal set-up.........give em a shout bud.
