How to fit Dump Valve to 4x4 Cosworth?
Hi All, I'm sure this is a very easy question to answer but I was hoping somebody might be able to explain where and how I can fit a Group A Forge Dump Valve to my Sapphire 4x4 and if there are any other parts required to do this. The car has standard plumbing so assume the factory valve also needs to be removed and some advice on how to do this would be appreciated as well please. Thanks in advance
Right, I decided to go out, have a look at the engine and see if I could work it out myself....but would appreciate somebody letting me know if what I am about to describe is correct: Looks like the original bosch valve is connected to the induction plumbing running to the turbo from the air filter as well as to the left hand side of the intercooler. I assume that once I have removed the bosch valve by underdoing the relevant jubilee clips/pipes then I need to plug the intercooler on the left hand side and the hole left in the induction pipe as well. I believe that the dump valve can be fitted to the hose running from the intercooler to the inlet on the right hand side of the engine but needs to be fixed either via a t-piece + extra tubing which needs to be held in place with jubilee clips, the top of the valve is then connected via a tube to the inlet where the original bosch valve was piped in. I assume that the dump valve can also be fitted to the induction hose (where the bosch valve currently sits) and via a T-piece which the intercooler also connects to. Have I got this completely wrong??? To be fair I would rather fix it on the induction side if this is possible???
I put mine between the itercooler and the throttle body, then theres a little pipe that comes off and goes to the amal valve i think. I still have a Alu tpeice for the big pipe if you need one, £10 to your door
Cheers for the update but its nice to know I have half an idea. Having considered slicing my original hose Im thinking of taking the plung in buying a silicon boost hose kit with the pipe built in for the dump valve but thanks very much for the offer.
