007P are recirc valves, quiet.

Mine is that loud on the Blue car due to an uprated TIP, an OPEN cone induction kit, and the K03S turbo conversion, running 21PSI of boost.

The IHI is that loud because its a massive turbo with 27PSI of boost, not 6PSI like a standard Cupra.

Very few people have them that loud, but I quite like it, tis the small amount of Chav in me I guess!

Are you remapped? Or as your sig says standard?

If standard, then you'll be boosting to 5-6PSI. With a standard airbox you won't hear anything. Car will just feel better.

To get most from the DV change, I would reset your car battery. Saves the car having to adjust...

Nah, im running on around 205 bhp as I had it re-mapped. Plus im smoothing off the standard air box and installing the Green panel filter this weekend as well. Shouldnt be too far off 210bhp come Monday.

Reset my car battery? What do you mean?

I think he means disconnect the battery and leave it for 10 mins or so then plug it back in and start the car. Your ECU should auto adjust to the Air filter and other bits.

A 007 wont make a blind bit of difference to the sound of the dump compared to standard. They both release air into the TIP.

And open cone and remap will on the other hand increase the sound.

Personally i think my 'dump' is too loud and it annoys me on 007P, Samco TIP and Jetex open cone.

Why dont you go for an enclosed filter then Phil? Move the Cold air feed to the front somewhere, further for the dumps "echo" to travel, therefore, quieter??

Got any clips of your cars "dump" Phil?

I found it a little laggier with an enclosed filter and cold air feed e.g. dynatwist or BMC.

I've tried standard air box, BMC CDA, Dynatwist with and without cover and without and without cold air feed and open cone jetex filter. The open cone Jetex and open cone dynatwist pulled better figures on the MAF than any of the other setups. The BMC was the worst, like 8-9g/s difference between that and the open cone dynatwist.

You learn to live with stuff really.

This is the only vid i got and its not that clear in sound...

This may be a daft question but what is the difference between FMCL007 and the FMCL007P. Cheers

So the 007P you can fit in reverse if you wish and the 007 is just normal way round. So no difference other than that. Ah right. Cheers

Sorry if this isnt in the right place, but didnt see the point in starting a new thread... will a 006 dv be as good as a 007p, as i have been given one for free?

At the start of this thread you wanted a quiet dump valve but then you got on about loud ones lol.

If you want quiet go for the 007 and if you want loud then go for the Turbosmart Dual Port
