How To and Parts needed for relocating the DV on a K03 car?
S2 Ant:
Hi All,
Is there a list of bits or guide for whats needed to relocate the DV on the K03 to the front like on the K04 cars?
Just want to know what bits i need in order to achieve this.
As im going K04 anyway it needs doing but thought if this isnt a huge PITA then i could do this whilst i get the pennies sorted for the other bits i need and im gonna need to know whats needed at some point anyway!
Cheers!

Interestingly, how have people got on with doing this with the BSH kit as well given the location of the Brake Fluid Resevoir as i was looking at this last night and its pretty much on top of where the take off is on the intake pipework

Would be interested in this to any main benefits other than being able to get rid of the electric recirc valve?

I havent seen what bits are on the car to understand fitting and all the talk on the BSH kit tends to be on US cars and models that are already K04.
My car has a Forge DV at the moment, the BSH kit says about a bung that replaces the opening where the DV goes, i presume this is on the part of the turbo and not dependent on which DV you have fitted?
It also talks alot about the noise pipe and some box in the area under the wipers - i dont recall ever seeing this on my car - is it K04 specific? US Specific?
The rest seems to make sense, but i find seeing things tends to make it a whole lot easier to understand and i dont want to buy something to go down this route to then find i need to spend a whole lot more on other stuff because of assumptions of it going on to a K04 car.
Benefits of relocating the DV tho are posted about here....

Noise pipe is US specific, read about them before.
