Hi guys

i am on a post frenzie lol this is the last for today... honest

anyway need your advice as i dont no what to do here,

i dont no what to buy out of the above, i no a dump valve just dumps to the atmosphere and does nothing for power etc, i currently have the a forge recir valve and i have heard of a wastegate but dont no what it is??

I am after a valve that really does both things, i do like a bit of noise ( i love the chattering sound rather than psssssst!) but would like the valve to help the turbo spool up ready for the next load....

Any help and tips would be great, ideally there is something that helps the turbo for the bext power load whilst making a nice loud chattering whilst changing gears???????

HELP..

Thanks guys

Ant :confused:

Chattering is turbo stool which is bad for the turbo...although i will agree it does sound nice.

a fully resurc valve like the forge 007p is best for power as it dumps the air back into the charge system.

the only thing i can recomend is the turbosmart valve then you get best of both worlds...loads of info if you have a search on this.

Have a read here about what a wastegate is and does...
