    Which diverter valve do you have?

    Sorry if this has been done before, but all I could find when I did a search was a query about the Forge DVs.

    So please tell us which DV your car has and, if other than stock, why you chose it.

        Sorry I forgot to put an "Other" category - can Mods help please?

        @GT500 - can you elaborate on why they are "the best"...?

        I'd also like to know why I haven't spotted your lovely RS2 around Leeds!

            I don't know why you havent seen me around,,, usualy use it every day.engine having a quick rebuild at the moment so unless you pass my drive you won't see it!

            HKS bov are a lovley piece of engineering. You can adjust the vacume release so it dosen't leak air on tick over. They have a huge intake hole, much bigger than most diverters so flows more air. Change the fin inside it and makes a tweety churp as it vents, just like waist gate chatter on hi boost cars, so no rs turbo chav crap noise!

                    710N here. Mainly 'cos it was only £15 and I wanted to rule the DV out as a possible cause of the boost issues I was having.

                    Did make some weird noises initially until I realised I'd put it on back to front. Doh!

                        Perhaps I should add that I'm perfectly happy with the 710N, I'm just looking at "long life" alternatives, and it's just one less thing to eliminate when you have boost problems.

                          I run the Turbosmart Plumb Back DV on mine! Works very well and look stealthy

                          EDIT: it's adjustable too so you can get the chatter if you want too
