    You mean with out counter pressure?

    With counter pressure it will hold what ever your throw at it, as the piston has the same pressure each side.

    With out the counter pressure it will depend on what you turn the top cap too as that adjusts the spring tension..

    Either way they are stiffer then the oem valves..

    I have one for sale if you want?

        I had a pair of them on my 3b, and was running almost 2 bar.

        Worked fine.

            Yes, i put some slugs round the ends to stop the hoses popping off.

            If your hose ever pops off and your running the maf in stock location just unplug it, otherwise the car wont start because it wont be sucking air past the maf.
            I had to do this a few times.

            It should work fine with one valve, i only used two because i had a pair left.
            It will just stay open a fraction longer to dump all the air.

            Its worth lubricating the piston on the veeport every so often. I just used silicon spary lube..

                if you find the veeport is no good for your power level then i can highly recommend the raceport valve, which is 52mm and can flow enough for almost any application.
