Hi guys im looking into getting a d.v for my octy 1.8t but which one do i buy??????

I've got a Forge 007P on mine which does the job nicely. As long as you get a recirc type then you shouldn't get any running issues. Also the Forge is serviceable and I don't think the Baileys equivalent is.

Hey

Anyone on here will tell you the octy's VAG engine was designed to recirculate the unused air generated from the turbo, so best stick to a recirculating dump valve. Forge 007p Is the most popular at around 80 notes.

Much cheaper ones can be found on eBay, A VAG specialist reliably informed me that there is not really any difference between the one he advised me to buy and a Forge item except the Forge stamp on it (and maybe the type of grease that they use inside it??????)

See eBay well cheap and does the job. even fits under standard plastic engine cover unlike the Forge.

There is another option:

eBay link 2

A Forge Split-R which by reading most reviews on here is pretty poor, being sold on after a few months, and is the most expensive The choice is yours, entirely down to budget!

If your after noise, get an induction kit with the money you've saved on the dump valve!!!!!! (like me)

hope this helps

Comp brake a lot cheaper and just as good as the forge one

What comp brake??? Sorry if I sound thick

It comes with 2 springs if that's what you meant?

I found the one fitted to be the hardest out of the 2 so left that in and it's been fine on my remapped vrs

Actually its having LPG fitted right now was costing me a bomb in vpower!

Got some poly bushes to put on might fit a rear anti roll bar and some s3 strut braces on the way... decided to do any work I can myself been educating myself on here so hopefully wont be needing to use my RAC membership again

The 4x4 sounds good you not going to do the brakes though?!!

Erm, yes, I did mean springs but it came out valves for some reason... must be my age

Recon i'll leave the spring in n see how it goes then.
