I've got a problem with my dump valve on my RS Turbo S2. At first the dump valve sounds perfect but then once the engine warms up no sound at all. All I hear is the light screamy noise of the actuator. I've got Forge 6-bolt twin-piston type dump valve.
I don't know what the problem could be. I checked the springs and they seem working fine. The dump valve opens and closes normally when I checked it. What I've installed recently and don't know but might affect it in someway is the stage 3 T3 turbo and a Blitz dual-solenoid boost controller. Anyone can help pls? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. That's what I was afraid of, having to buy a new dump valve! It's a pitty cause it used to sound pretty good
So what do you suggest? Bailey's dv26 or dv36?

I soted it out guys. I contacted Forge Motorsport and talked to a guy called Peter Miles. He said my dump valve is so old that it's almost a classic! Since their dump valves are guaranteed for life and there is no repair kit available that can guarantee to work for my dump valve, he's gonna send me a new twin-piston ram-type dump valve FREE OF CHARGE! Excellent service ain't it guys?!!
Thanks for the help
