Dump Valve? What one to have?

Hi Guys and Girls,

I have a 2001 Ibiza MK3 Cupra and was wanting to add a Dump Valve.
I have no idea what one to go for so i was wondering if you guys can help? :D

I dont want the typical "boy racer" Woosh i kinda like the "flutter" sound, I heard a MK2 Golf with a 20VT lump in make the same sound but he was going to fast for me to ask what he had. [B)]

Any help would be appreciated

theres only one really and thats the forge 007p recirc valve
must be used by around 80% of owners because its cheap and it works. others exist but you either pay more for the same thing or less for one of a lesser quality.

noise is much more affected by the intake than the dv since recirc valves are sort of silent, a good intake will gain a nice audible turbo sound effect

I've been looking on the net and found a few people recommend the Forge Split R Valve as the 1.8 20vt Vag lump likes the reserc but the split R Gives you the "sound" too.

Anyone know where i can get one as i cant see it on the forge site! I must be blind [B)]

Do you like the Split R? Any benifits over the 007p?


Ive run both. I prefer the split r because it makes a good noise on the car. There are no benefits over the 007 valve. You only buy the split r becuase you want more noise.

the 007 on mine was quiet with the set up I have so I changed it for the split r.

Sort of, its hard to describe. Its the characteristic of the valve, ive spoken with many people running these valves and they all seem to get the flutter sound.

I'll try and get some footage of this over the weekend and host it on here for you all to hear. Sounds good. On low boost it makes a flutter sound and then on full boost it just gives a clean whoosh.

Yeah, get your pics up soon mate, I wanna see what your wheels look like, have u had them dont yet?

Did u get an exhaust in the end?

Havent had the wheels done yet mate. I had them cleaned properly and they looked mint, so im going to see how it looks with the mud flaps on etc and then see if im going to have them done. Im pretty sure I will, just need to be certain before I do it.

forgot about the split R valve tbh, but personally i prefer a set up consisting of the 007p and a proper cold air intake. much more of a long, loud ssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhh sound as opposed to a puttisssh

what ever floats your boat really

The way the split-R valves is by dumping some air to atmosphere, but not enough to flag up any errors. I'd rather (or I did) go for the 007P with an uprated TIP, decent induction (Open cone will be very audible). The best way to increase the noise is a remap, more boost is more noise...

Not seen the vids of my two Ibizas then? lol

Well maybe not RST sound, but VERY loud all the same....

Yeah I saw you IHI ones, must admit it sounds great. Its surprising that that your running the 007 on there.

Doesnt sound like an RST tho, its got that mad crazy tuned VAG sound;):cartman:
