Depends if you value your turbo

Are you running MAF or MAF-less?

I'm guessing with that power you must have a GT30?

Leave it blanked off mate. No point in a dv. Turbo will cope just fine.


Is it more noise you are after?

I tried it myself Shaun and didn't like it on the MD series turbo. Each to there own and all but personally didn't work for me. So went back to DV Delete.

Turbosmart plumback recirculating dump valve. It's expensive at £260 but for me it turned out to be the best bit of kit I ever bought
