dump valves:

[imster]

hi all,
are there any advantages to changing from the stock DV to a baileys or forge. Want to know if it justifies the outlay at the mo.
thanks

Yes there is, but it's catch 22

Replacement S3 dump valve is £20-25 but you could be replacing it evey 12-18 months

Buy a Forge for roughly £70-90 have a dump valve for life and to rebuild it every 40-60K cost £5-10

Pays your money takes your choice.

In terms of performance there aren't none really although throttle will feel sharper.
