Overboost and VTA dump valve
#1
Ok, As some know, i have been suffereng from fuel cut, due to the car overboosting. This seemed to start happening after I had my new clutch fitted, though that could just be co-incidence.
I've had my Forge VTA DV on the car for some time now, and it WAS on before the new clutch and I had no problems.
However, my question is, could fitting a VTA cause overboost? I do have my recirc DV and can fit it, but before I get dirty, I want to know if the VTA could be the cause of the problem.
Thanks for any info.

Give it a try, I changed mine in the ad break of Goldeneye the other night
Cant see how it would cause overboost. If it was leaking on boost you would just loose pressure, rather that gain it. Woth checking all the connections though.
Maybe just because its extra cold at the moment? A few people have been suffering.

Markus,
If you have no joy try and get to the East Sussex meet we can go fo a spin and I can attach a few gizmo's to try and find out if anything is failing.
May even be able to get Scott Gillchrist to bring a few spares with him as he has a spare WRX on his drive.
