Gonna get a new dump valve for my cupra, its currently got a forge one on it just now but it doesnt make any noise, im after something that makes a bit of noise when it dumps but not overly loud like a cossie or that. Any suggestions?

get an open cone filter to get the whoosh, even better, just get open cone filter & splir valve, dependas on how much u wanna spend.

I would stay away from K&N, Ive heard things about them damaging the MAF Sensor. Get a JR Cone filter or somethign similar for about £40 and you'll soon get the sound.

My mrs has the forge 007 dv and it is louder than my split r valve

Pretty much the same, She has a jabba map, Samco TIP, Jabba Induction kit, Cold side Relocation kit for the dump valve and the 007 forge dv. Shes also got a downpipe and full exhaust system.

Ive got a P-torque Map, Split r, Forge TIP, Dynatwist filter (no heatsheild) and a catback system.

Dont get me wrong mine is loud buts different to hers, mine chirps where as hers whooshes all the time.

Im gonna get forge to have a look at it when I get my FMIC fitted, people say the chatter sound is bad but ive been convinced its just what my valve does, Ive tried so many different turns and clicks and it just chatters.


Ive got a clip of mine here but the sound quality is pretty poor so you cant really hear it well

Ill see what forge say when they hear it, could be my valve is dodgy? But then theres a few Leon drivers who run this and theres is the same:shrug:

So taking the heat shield off the dynatwist will make the dump louder and What effects would it have on the engine if i was to take it off?


Ive taken the heatshield off mine now, had it off about 3 months and its fine, made good power on the rolling road as well, yes it dumps louder
