DV Side-effects or just paranoid?

Fitted a Bailey DV12 dump-valve and although I like the sound on full boost it's a bit annoying at low speeds etc.
I know it's possible i've lost some power as the car has been mapped with the re-circ but is it possible that the DV could be causing me to use more fuel?
I got the DV12 yesterday and fitted it, and now i'm back onto the re-circ till I can find out a little more.
If i'm losing power it's not really noticable but if i'm losing fuel just for a noise then I can't be bothered as it's a novelty I'm sure i'll get bored of pretty quick.

I belived I was doing so in which case potentially I could cause engine issues be it 1 days time or 10 years it would be i'm guessing unknown.
I think i'm going to go down the Forge Re-Circ DV route.
