using amal valve as a switch for a dump valve, how?
i have a dump valve but am not especialy fond of the sound, however i have herd that iit is possible to use a amal valve and plumb it into the dump valve vacume.
u can then use this to choose between dump valve or chater.
i dont want a smart arse replys saying why dont you just remove it, i have my reasons.
any help would be greatfully recieved

on the amal valve there are 3 letters they are c,w and a i think w goes to the waste gate c goes to the takeoff point on turbo compressor housing and the other goes to the airflow meter hope this helps

so if i plumped the dump valve directly into the waste gate one, the plub the vacum hose into the 'c' gate, then take a hose from the air flow meter and t piece it back into the vacume hos, this will redirect the pressure away from the dump valve.
any body
when u put volts on the amal valve, what happens?

But WHY??
It's simple, if you like the DV, keep it, if not take it off. It's that easy. I cannot think of ANY reason why anyone would want to choose?
Surely you don't think to yourself "I know, I fancy driving my car around on light boost and hearing it chatter today, no, actually, I'm now going to rag the tits off it, so I better turn my Dump valve on"

i can see one big problem it will work fine when you running a the dump valve but when you switch it of and it dont have boost pressure on top of dumpvalve as well as the bottom it will leak your boost off!!!

i thought the idea of a twin piston dump valve was that it stayed closed until it had positive pressure on the vacume side?
1 of my reasons is i had a lovely panel made in carbon fibre and i had four switches put in, but ive only got one of them in use (i blended some driving ligts into my 90spec bumper)
any thing else cool i can fit that needs swithces?
