No they don't.  I think you have your terminology confused.  They have a recirculating valve (also called 'divert valve' or 'turbo cut off valve') which basically diverts excess boost pressure back to the low pressure inlet side of the turbo.  A 'dump valve' is one which vents excess pressure to the atmosphere.

The MKV ED30 DSG if its standard will most likely have a REV C divertor valve which is the diaphram one (located under the car...) If you want the Woosh noise just buy a Forge Spacer with the new REV D piston Divertor Valve instead.

My mate drives a mkv ed30 dsg and the forge space doesn't always dump the air out because of the dsg box just so you know. While on Manual its all good :)

incorrect.

the ed30 has its diverter valve situated on the front of the engine by the inlet manifold and radiator fans.  its the k03 turbo that has the diverter valve underneath the car fitted to the actual turbo itself.

As for the forge spacer, it ook mine out because i seriously was embarrased by the massive whooshes it released when pootling around town.  sounded good when booting it, but thats where it ended

cheungy:
oops completely forgot about that sorry forgot the ED30 was K04 (half awake)...
