Brayden, im normally the first one to stand up and shout the corner for OE dump valves, but if your running mafless (and i think reading through your shocking grammar and text speak thats what your saying), you can dump the air wherever you fancy with no ill effects!

If your still running the maf, an aftermarket dumpvalve that dumps to atmosphere rather than recirculating it to the pipe between turbo and maf is the only way to go!

And if thats the case, a standard OE valve does just as good a job as any aftermarket one.
