Oct 30th, 2006, 20:35

All

Fitted an atomospheric dump valve to my 850 t5 over the weekend, situated it between the piece of rubber pipe between the intercooler and throttle body... now it seems to dump but it isnt very loud... am i supposed to remove the stock recirc valve?

If so where is it? and what sort of job is it?

if i do remove the stock recirc valve will it make any difference...

your help is appreciated

thx

Hi, by the sounds of it you have fitted the dump valve in the correct place. Yes you do have a recirculating dump valve which you will need to remove and blank off using a blanking plate as you will be dumping twice. If you look at the back of your engine you will see your turbo. At the right hand side, facing the back of the engine, you will see a triangular looking object, which a black hose comming out of it. This is your recirculating dump valve. You will need to buy a blanking plate to replace this, and then connect this hose which goes to your inlet manifold to your dump valve.

Hope this helps.
Regards
Stuart
