Title: Advice regarding Forge Diverter Valve for Ed30
Post by: chopper on April 02, 2012, 06:52:16 pm
Does anyone have any experience with the Forge DV for the Edition 30? I had my car remapped at weekend, and was advised to get one fitted. Im running APR hpfp, forge twintake, forge twintercooler, APR TBE.

It's more economical to just replace your present one with an oem version D revision.

I've never had one of these fitted so cannot speak from experience, but have had two separate tuning companies (who actually sell them) tell me that they are no good and to save my money and not bother.

The latest revision on the OEM is a great option and way cheaper.

Well obviously Steves stage X GTI seems be coping on the OEM DV, so its gonna be perfectly fine for stage 1-3.
