Default dump valve/chatter????

ive come across this comment elsewhere, thought id get your opinion!!!!!


"Right if your sick an tired of your dump valve makein the same old noise why not treat ureself to a -31 actuator an a nice air filter an get ure RS chatterin, sounds lot better than normal dump valves an will increase BHP an keep your turbo happy !!!! MIKE RS TURBO"

"dont u hav 2 run more than standard boost tho 2 make the chatter just that little bit better!"

"if you cut into the control pipework and put in a T piece with two tubes coming off it ..on one tube u put a one way valve facing towards the engine and then on the other place a vapour manegment valve (2 wire type) then they both rejoin the inlet manifold..."
you now have a working switchable dump valve that can be turned on or off at the flick of a switch
this works a treat...

"sounds like a good idea, where can i get a vapour managment valve and how much are they?"

"...or alternatively use a spare amal valve as i have!
just pull out the nylon restrictors, cut into ur boost gauge hose and connect one side to the wastegate (W) port, the other side to the compressor (C) port, and connect the dump valve vacuum feed to the airbox (R) port. u may need to make some sort of union or a use a piece of bigger hose to make the small vacuum hoses fit the big amal valve ports.
now all u need to do is make a switch to supply the valve with 12V when u want the dump valve on.
sorted."



i dont fully understand this but is this actually possible? is this better than a dump valve or...........?
