I have got a mk1 leon cupra 20v turbo I am looking at changing the dump valve on the car can any one please tell me the best one to get for the car? I have also been told that you can put two dump valves on the car re-circulating one and one blow off:confused:

One of these should do the trick

I fitted one to my 20vt a few weeks ago, not that there was nowt wrong with the original one, but just for reliability.

The car does seem to pull harder in the lower gears with the Forge 007P fitted, obviously cos t's holding boost better than the notoriously unreliable std bosch item, well worth the £80 odd they cost, if your on a road of improvment.

Unless you want all that venting to air woosh noise then the dirverter is the one to get at around the £135.00 also from Forge.

Oh dear god no, not again.....

Forge 007P is the most popular.
No, you can't fit two.
Buy a Forge Split-R if you want noise.

Now you know that, go and learn how to use the search feature.

Get the split R it can be used for both 100% recirculating valve for the quiet note or put on the trumpet and get on 30-40% blow off which sounds sweet.:p

Oh and do a search :doh:

007p for performance and plug n play ease.. have heard these split r's are a bit of a bitch to setup - lol for some people anyway :p

That is true but only fools cannot set up a this dump valve. I have the relocation kit too so mine stays cool. Easy to set up imo

It was easy for some people but i think it was just that the valve did not work on a handful of cars,i tried it on every setting possible,had it fitted and set up by a specialist but car kept loosing boost after a while,got fed up with it in the end sent it back and got a 007p which with a good induction kit sounds just as good as the split r if not better,imo there is little difference in sound outside the car.
All the people that had the problem with this valve had exactly the same problems i don't think it was a case of people just wanting to make crap up and people not knowing what they are doing as you said.
007p all the way if you want no hastle,you won't be let down as they are quality product.

This was the exact same problem i had,thats why now i would only recomend the 007p over the split r.
