Re-fitting OE re-circ valve
Hi guys,
just a quick question
how hard is it to re fit the OE re-circ dump valve?
i am thinking of removing the VTA dump valve and replacing it with the standard jobbie but was just wondering if there are how too's or advice/tips on removing the VTA and fitting the OE.
is it an easy job?
any advice/tips would be great appreicated

As long as you still have the pipe that goes into the inlet pipe you'll be fine. There will probably be some kind of bung on the inlet side, you need to remove this bung and retrofit the black rubber hose that you took off when you fitted your VTA dump.
You did save it, didn't you? I didn't and it cost me 15 quid to get a used one from API

have you run ur car yet? did exactly same today and the car just wouldn't have it, whining sound on boost so have put the bailey back on and it's ok now. My car has changed a bit since fitting the dump valve, headers, mapping etc so could be that. The OEM has sat on a shelf in the garage for the last 9months so it may have deterioated in some way.Haven't got a clue but definately not a happy car.

car runs fine - no issues at all.
my car only has PPP fitted tho
did all the hoses get a tight fit??
my OE DV sat in a box in the shed for three years and still works.
although i'm going to keep hold of the blitz DV for a bit just to make sure its all ok.
