DUMP VALVE with whoosh, but without loosing power?

[Skorchio]

I had all that before and got fed up with it so won't be doing it again, v tidy engine bay tho.

Thanks mate, Yeh well i have had it with all my cars lower the better

I can honestly say the Forge Split R still makes me smile. Ive taken the sound deadening off and the noise is quite entertaining. Definitly a woooshhh and a tishhhhhh.

Running Revo Stage 2, Smoothed Air Box, 80mm feed. Its all down to personal taste.

 

[skahigh]

is the stuff under the bonnet just for sound deadening? doesnt it serve some kind of heat shield type purpose? if its just sound deadening I might take it off and have a listen....

 

[caveo]

yep just sound deadening and takin it off makes a hugh difference to the dv noise especially from inside the car i did it the other day and its sounds alot eeerrr (?) hollower if u catch my drift and def louder

 

[caveo]

plus it just clips off so u can put it stright back on if u want to ( mines still in boot just in case)

 

[kernowcupra]

had my forge 007 fitted and my green cotton induction kit done i get a quiet whoosh occasionally!

IMO, it doesn't protect your bonnet from heat cracks once you remove it!

Good point the 1.8 20vt lump gets very hot!!

I might take mine off at the weekend i got the cold side recerc kit and it puts the DV right near then front grill so might not make huge difference to me

thats cos the 007 is a fully recirc valve and made to be quiet

i just put the BMC CDA on mine, hooked up with the spliter it sounds the nuts. essp when its only boosting up to 10psi after that its a bit quieter. Ive found tht you cant hear the spliter at full boost. I would say if your unsure if you want the spliter i wouldn't buy it only cos its about £130 alot of money if you deside you only want full re-cir. as far as i no the 007 is alot cheaper, but its your money matey ive been very happy with my spliter.

hi mate give aet turbo's in wakefield a call they do a turbosmart dual port dump valve with a re positioning kit i have one on my leon and it is seriously loud!!!

 

[Seat til I die]

funny, i also got the forge dv 700p coupled with green cotton panel filter a couple of days ago.
can notice a slight but definite improvement in performance at certain points in the rev range, cant honestly say it sounds any louder at all, sounds slightly different i spose, cleaner, but the sound change is nominal at best.

good for me though, i didnt really want it to sound all loud anyway. well maybe a little bit louder oh well, im happy!

For better sound of the Forge Split-R :
No need to remove the sound deadening or buy a DV relocation kit etc.

Do as I did ,
I made a hose to run from the valve to the front...
Blows out from there through the grille, and sounds great !

Dont get me started on the split r valve mate. Be a clever boy and put it back to full recirc and feel how much smoother and faster your car is ( just go out and try it and get back to me , thank me later )

I too can post the same thing twice LOL!!!

You mean putting the Split-R to recirc with the blanking plug ?
Or switch back to the DV007 ?

Dump valve noise

Don't know what the problem is. I have a Forge 007P, but put on "the other way round" which Forge say is fine, basically the pressure is on the bottom of the piston rather than the side. That make a hell of a noise when i let off.

Yes just put it back to full recirc via the blanking plug and go for a run mate.

 

[George S3]

[ForgeMotorsport]

No ,its designed for the 1.8T application , we wouldnt last long on this forum if we made a part that didnt work
