MattyB Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 That looks like the 1.8T which used to race in the VW Cup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 nope but it reminds me how annoying blow off valves are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I love it. If I stuck a 1.8t in a gti id keep it looking relatively stock, but have a dv to confuse other drivers as you wave good bye at speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 using a diverter valve with a slightly heavier spring than you really need would give off a much nicer chattering sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4T VW Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Looks like Ian Carvelle's old one to me. I think it crashed into a wall on track, Not sure if it was a race or track day but i remember seeing pics of it on the back of a low loader.

nfbr Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Chatter = baaaaaad.Depends on what turbo it is and the type of wastegate.1.8 20v T engines, usually if they chatter, You need to get a lighter DV Spring as its too strong... This will inevitably kill the turbo after a fair while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
