I dnt mind offering to pay someone to fit it for me please ??

[HJVrs]

Anyone point me in right direction?

Theyre not designed to run an atmospheric dumpvalve, so your best with a good induction kit and a forge recirculating dump valve 

[HJVrs]

Many of people have said that , but I haven't got the spare cash to get 1 of them yet so looking to fit this , I've seen many people have them fitted but won't say how they did ??

If you can afford to pay someone to fit it then you can afford to DIY a recirc dump valve.

 

Personally I think you're better off with either a GFB DV+ or the latest revision of the OEM part.

Where is the diverted located please anyone ?

[HJVrs]

Any ideas ??

[HJVrs]

Please ?

On the TFSI the std diverter valve bolts directly to the turbo, a regular BOV/Dump Valve won't fit as they are designed to be fixed to a rubber or silicone Pipe.

Mate, do you really think bumping your thread every hour is helping?

 

Here, do some study. http://www.volkspage.net/technik/ssp/ssp/SSP_337.pdf

I assume you bought a universal BOV rather than a vehicle specific unit?  You'll probably have to buy a relocation kit to make it work. Unitronic make them for about USD200 and there are a few other brands.  Most of the kits are designed for LHD cars so you need to be careful about the clearance near the master cylinder on a RHD vehicle.

 

What are you actually trying to achieve with an atmospheric BOV? 

 

If you want more power get a stage 1 remap - best bang for buck you'll find.

You can get forge copies for like £25 now :-/

I got my forge one fitted when i got car serviced last time

[erindad]

Was it a forged forge that you fitted?

yes its the same as the link you first posted up. put the car on ramps and take off the cover underneath the car, then you can see where it is, it fits between the diverter and part of the turbo,for fitment the best bet is to buy the forge one. check the condition of the diverter valve while you have it off the car as it has been revised over and over again as they tend to fail.

I fitted mine last year and a bsh straight through induction pipe and sound it gives out is sweeeeeet (if you are into that kind of thing).
