anybody know where to find a good dv mine sounds like compression surge. i talk to a few people and alot of them said that it was the valve that the stock one sounds like that when you start putting mods on it. so any tips?

What car/engine?

Not knowing, your best bet is probably http://www.forgemotorsport.com/

to be 100% honest i have no clue if you would like to ride with one day or you drive it and tell me i am all down for it my talon does the same thing with the sound but its got a 50 mm bov on it.

where did you get this car from?

anything the previous owner disclosed?..not that that would make much diff...you need to just look around and see what it has...

i had a 1.8t a4....same engine just a transverse set up...

but i would be willing to look at it and see...if you really made it anywhere close to 140...yes you have some sort of chip....

what year is your car?

oh and mileage?

you may want to find out if the waterpump..tim ing belt and components have been replaced....tr ust me on that one.

Can't go wrong with them to be honest. You can ask most of the guys here and on the vortex and they'll tell you Forge makes a high quality product. It is a little on the pricey side as well.

I'm not 100% sure but i know on my audi you could use this upgraded oem diverter that was used on the 225hp Audi TT's thats a direct oem replacement, but has a more robust build to handle higher boost pressures, etc.

i dont even know if the dv is stock i was lookin under the hood of a beetle that came in to my work and it didnt have the same one. I'll get some pictures of it and show you guys tomorrow i dont have a light to do it now

LOS · « **Reply #9 on:** March 09, 2009, 09:09:36 AM »

Take a pic of it and post it. If its the stock one, replace it w/ a forge 007. When you were pulling out it sounded like this hybrid dv/bov that gofastbits used to make. I had one for a lil while and just didn't like it.

sleeper bug · « **Reply #10 on:** March 09, 2009, 06:29:56 PM »

its made by bousch or whatever but yeah still no pics my bad,... but if any body wants to help out like i said i got off wensday and thursday.

LOS · « **Reply #11 on:** March 10, 2009, 09:35:39 AM »

Is it a black plastic one? You mentioned bosch so im pretty sure thats your stock one. Sounds like its going out, get a forge 007...

you posted some crazy image code... I changed it so the piuctures would show up in the post as pictures, instead of links...

Can't go wrong with forge. But AWE is cheaper and (at least for the B7) has been just as good.

sleeper bug · « **Reply #17 on:** March 10, 2009, 10:53:38 PM »

oh cool thanks guys yeah I'll get that first instead of the down pipe

You posted a Forge blow-off valve. It seems most VAG products do better with Diverter valves

yeah i heard about using the 007. i might just do that.

lpshade · « **Reply #21 on:** March 11, 2009, 10:42:37 AM »

since you have the diverter value issue worked out now, you could use one of these as well.

Get that forge DIVERTER VALVE.. Forget about the blow off, its gonna cause issues down the road and you will waste your money. 007 or nothin.

sleeper bug · « **Reply #23 on:** March 11, 2009, 01:28:27 PM »

i need a few things befor the w/m injetion. after the dv its the down pipe. turbo timer. then gauges so i can start tuning.

Smokestack · « **Reply #24 on:** March 11, 2009, 04:15:47 PM »

I'd say w/m first. It raises the octane and lets you run cheap gas while keeping the engine clean and giving you a performance boost. None of the other things will do half of that, and for tuning a VAG-COM > any gauges that you're thinking of, but most of any tuning is taken care of buy chip tuners anyways... Don't worry about the turbo timer unless you're lazy and have money to blow.
