How to fit a dump valve to an escort rs turbo

Not sure what I’m doing what vacuum hose do I need and what size T-piece , I tried to use one from a boost gauge and it didn’t work

Also what pipe on top of the inlet do I use....rely am lost tried connoting it to ecu pipe and car just stalls
The D/valve did come from a ERST, its a bailey item.....not sure if its twin or single, but I herd it on the car just cant remember how it was fitted, On my inlet on the right had side the pipe runs to the ECU????? If you’re looking at it from the front, (head lights)

Rely having problems here is a pic of the DV

right, i think dump valves are crap, but the guys asking how to fit one, not what all of uslot think so.......

Obviously fit the dump valve into the boost hose, then run the vacuum pipe from the dump valve and 'T' it into the vacuum pipe that runs to the ECU. Make sure that everythings tight(no air leaks) and if the car stalls, then the dump valve is stuck open, allowing un-metered air to enter the system, causing the car to stall. hope thats some help
Oh and if you need some T-pieces, go and get some from Halfords, theyre all next to the window washer pumps and hose

Among the many crimes i have commited, i do admit to having a DV at present. RS's are better without them, but if you like it then heres a little picture of how mine is piped up

You will also need a metal T piece to go into the top boost hose between the intercooler and the charge carrier.

Just a quickie marky g looking at your sig it says you want a swirl pot. You do know the car has a swirl pot built into the thermostat housing on your S2?

I know everyone is allowed to fit whatever they what to their cars,but even looking at that picture of Safechav's engine bay with the dumpvalve fitted makes me feel unwell!! I hate them!! Regards Micky

SafeChav

Thanks hunny bunny i love you too

The car is a mess in that picture. DV is coming off, along with the KE Jetronic

Roll on EFI and copious amounts of chatter

ORANOCO think its an oil seperator im after then not a swirl pot....cant remember what it was i was told to get,

Lincolndanny - think u may be right it may be stuck open is it open when as in the pic u cant see throught it (looks closed i'd of thought)

And on a whole i just wanna see what it sounds like. i hate the fookin sounds its a 90's chav thing!!!!!!!! but Curiosity is a mother fuker!!!!

i have a sfs hose with it exit for it and i have a DV jst hanging around doin nothing just thought i'd try it.

I've herd so many arguments on so many sides about not fitting a DV it'll run shit, Fit one it'll make ur turbo last longer just dunno what to belive

Like the black detailing mate. looks

SafeChav

Take a picture of the big connection on the DV, i can soon tell you if its a twin piston or not.

Did my engine bay piccy not help you with how the pipe connects up?

marky_g

safechave its the same as ur one mate

Here's a step by step guide to fitting a Bailey pishton dump valve to an Escort RS Turbo.

1. Read you haynes manual. After reading your haynes manual do the first thing it says and disconnect the car battery incase you get an electric shock from the boost hoses, which may be live
2. Open the packaging on your shiny new Bailey dump vlave. Read instructions fully. Then re read your instructions.
3. Find a suitable container for waste products, such as a bin.
4. Place all packaging in container.












5. Now stop fucking about and throw the stupid fucking 'dump' valve on top of the packaging into the fucking bin!!

1.9 xr2 on 40's

single piston have the top outlet at 90 deg i think, doubles are straight out the top

urs wont work without a bleedvalve (set rite) in the vacume if it is single piston

SafeChav

marky_g they all look the same on the outside, get that picture i asked for

Rab where does it say in the instructions to throw it in the bin???

1.9 xr2 on 40's nooo thats stoneage methods

C14KEE

Or you could buy yourself a nice shiny crossover pipe off ebay and just sink it into the ready made hole??



If you aint had a dump valve get one, it all adds to the effect. All these guys are too old to remember what their first spin in a dump valved car felt like.

marky_g

wouldnt be my first dv'ed car mate, not goin with the idea was just a thought, i dont run a k'n' n either so dont rely get a noise.

its actually pretty good because i used to have a rep exactly that same as my turbo, so races with ppl i not seen for a while are interesting

marky_g

as 1.9 XR says it dose come straight out the top, i've been told the t piece is too small will that make i difference????

i'm gonna sell it on ebay dont wanna sell a dud item! would rather get it working first

SafeChav

marky_g the size or shape of the connection in the top bears no relevance, get that picture looking into the open end of the DV and i can tell you if its twin piston or not

Rab

Thats where all the sensible people put their D/V's after reading the instructions

i rememer wot it was like to drive a car with a dump valve for the first time...


a let down.... car drove worse and wasnt nice wen u cum off boost...



now got cossie managment and very very loud Chatter/flutter/wotever...



car will better off without it mate.... dont even bother... ive thrown 2 of em that worked in the bin now as cudnt even b bothered to sell em.



nice engine bay... big up black detail... betterthan bling!

Want my advice fucking bin the stupid dumpvalve they are a fucking disaster and shite...ecu stay away from..the car wont run right and potentially lead to detination which i had the misfortune of finding out....if u like the noise splash out on a stage 3 turbo & 31 actuator..it's a purer noise of just shear power...dump valve are for tossers in their glanza.....

notSteveS2

Legend... man after my own heart...


wen i had an MFi car stupid noise didnt bother me aslong as car ran to full potential...

who cars wot noise ur makin wen ur acceleratin past a car with a unnessicery (spellin) dumpvalve!
