  • whats the advantage of a dump valve mate?

  • @1308lee

    Promotes flow away from the turbo when you close the throttle. It continues to draw cool air through the intercooler and should prevent the turbo from slowing down.

    Disadvantage is you are wasting cool air and the computer doesn't know where it's gone. Sometimes causing the mixture to momentarily run rich and in some instances causes a backfire.

  • hello, dismantle the serial BOV ??

  • @TURBIAK

    If you are talking about disabling the oem recirculation valve then no. I left it enabled as it will prevent error codes but you'll still get the sound of the new BOV.

  • Was i on speek whilst watching this ?

  • @0ligrant

    If speek is something you can be on, then yes, you may have been on it :)

    1. Get in the car with the ignition off.

    2. Press the throttle pedal AND brake pedal down and hold them down.

    3. Turn the ignition key to position 1 and then onto position 2.

    4. The EML will begin to flash, it should flash 10 times initially and then pause then flash a certain ammount of times, pause, flash a few times again etc etc

    10 x flash (pause) 1 x flash (pause) 7 x flash (pause) 10 x flash (pause) = 0 1 7 0 which would be: P0170 Then enter the code in google
