looking to buy a dump valve but must be loud for v3.any ideas please....

 

Don't waste your money boy.
There's nothing wrong with the original one that it came with.

VTA dump valves are stupid things

 

If he's asking which are the loudest I'm guessing he doesnt want a silent recirc one. He wants to be heard!!

Maybe Turbosmart Megasonic or HKS SSQV.

 

if you want loud the the hks ssqv is probably the loudest

wiley

 

Have you asked here.....?

is this what Impreza ownership has come to

god help us all

 

i'dm say the HKS ones the loudest. blitz is too but different kind of noise. more ore a tweep chirp noise.

 

put your flame suit on my boy

hks ssqv is loud

 

dont know how loud the HKS one is but I know the turbo smart megasonic is very loud.

 

you guys do know a vta assists spool up right?

 

VTA assists spool up? Does it?
I know they can do you damage from by-passing the MAF, thats all the info I need not to get one.............apart from the annoying noise.....

 

mine came with the turbosmart supersonic which can be adjusted so it acts as a vta as well as recirc just depends how hard or soft the setting but its pretty loud but ive quietened mine so more recirc than vta.

 

can you explain the mechanics behind that?

 

I prefer the electric ones you can buy from ebay

 

Really?

VTA dump valves do more harm than good and make an annoying noise that only impresses 15 year old school boys.

When air is entering the intake it will have been metered by the MAF sensor. This will then allow the ECU to provide the correct amount of fuel in order to maintain a healthy A/F balance. When using a VTA dump valve, this air will lost when the valve actuates, but the ECU will not be aware of this and still supply the fuel. No or very little air means all the fuel will not be burnt. The excess fuel will then slip past the piston rings and into the sump mixing with the oil. A condition known as 'bore wash'.

If you're happy to run a VTA DV knowing this then by all means carry on. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the standard recirc item that came with the car. It works fine and doesn't produce a chavvy noise.


The end is near.....and it is chavvy.

 

Looks like it

 

wtf. he asked for which was the loudest, not if he should buy one and the reasons you dont have one on your motor. SN sheep.

hks ssqv and the megasonic are both fairly loud.

 

lol chav horn!

 

Aye but surely if what hes intending on doing has a detrimental effect to his car he should be informed.

If i was to post up saying im going to put jizz in my gearbox because id read on the interwebz that it was better than proper box oil and a rake of people had replied saying 'aye, fire on mate' id be pretty gutted when the box epicially fails in a mess of boiled semen.

P.S the topic of the thread should be changed to 'How to make my car more ned-like'

 

Howay... leave the poor lad alone... having a dump valve doesn't make someone a chav... he might just want to annoy the people next door

 

pure chav, end of.

The very worst in Impreza ownership brought to reality right here.

 

 

your location says it all "The racetrack that is Milton Keynes"

 

what do you mean by that? U ever driven in MK? 70mph limit on most roads where they would be 30/40mph elsewhere.

 

Yup, horrible place

just picking on it in the same way you are flaming people for having an opinion you don't agree with. Then repeating what everyone says when they get criticised my the majority. sheep, gotta love 'em

 

the turbo amrt one is ludest as i had one on my old scoob and had to get rid of it the hks one can sound nice and i dont think its that loud but you can change it so it only dumps at higher revs

 

looking for one that is as loud as possible points to the word CHAV to me TBH

there are better ways to annoy the neighbours

 

OK OK.

So what about this instead of a noisy dump value - NO dump value at all

 

this is my next move, any idea where to get a blanking plate from?

 

Yes MrRA, its simple - less compressor surge to the turbo means that it will spool back up quicker - its not rocket science

My hks item was fine for the months i had my car - not one problem.

Oh and, what if your running a MAP sensor instead please?

The people that bitch & moan are the people who buy an impreza in a mid life crises, know nothing about them and try fit a chav valve wrong, causing problems. - thats the only way id know a vta would make itself a problem. and i arnt been funny, but that counts for quite a few people on here that dont know what theyre doing.

RA Dunk - no DV over time the pressure will wreck the bearings in your turbo
