remove the dump valve completely!


will put extra strain on turbo but some people have run without a d/v for years with no issues.

you may find part throttle jerky though....try it and see


I find it will also reduce turbo lag (although many will argue)

John,
I spoke to you some time ago and told you get in touch with Nick to see about becoming a trader on our little Forum.

We have spoken a couple of times since then but if your anything like me and get many many calls daily it is kind of hard to keep track of who is who;)
