Re: Diverter Valve

Get a chip.. then buy my diverter!
Just think... if you replace it more then once.. mine would be worthwhile!!

Re: Diverter Valve

710n is the end of the part number.. yea its OEM from the dealer

if your not chipped.. maybe not but wouldn't hurt to replace if you want even.. like i said good peace of mind.

ps.. get a chip! whole new car!

Re: Diverter Valve

710N? can i get that at the dealer? Im headed there today for a oil filter and touch up paint anyway.
It doesent honk and im not chipped. I was just curious if its a good idea, or if a waste of money.

Re: Diverter Valve

are you chipped? they honk when they die or you'll boost gauge will tell you but it may be a good idea to get a 710N.. 40 bucks.. peace of mind

Are you a valve engineer? Not very often will someone quote Vortex as a source of the truth.... the stock diaphram BPV's are designed to be used in one direction... and not doing so will reduce its life span. Im guessing the Audi VW engineers built them that way for a reason... and they are engineers!

That being said.. if someone is looking for a Forge BPV with tuning kit.. I got one laying around.. hows $75 sound?

Re: Diverter Valve

BOV do not work well with VW/Audi's due to how the air is measured at the MAF. Running one means you run rich on fuel during boost due to the metered air being released. Plus they sound stupid.

Re: Diverter Valve

I was chipped. Reversing the DV just changed the sound. One way was higher pitched and a bit lounder. It was more of a chirp than a pffft.

Does this work with the stock plastic dv? Just switch where the 2 big pipes connect?
