Okay, so seen as this is my first turbo car, i want to be fitting replacement dump valves. So who can reccommend what and how much roughly should i be looking to spend??

 

Cheers,

Bradley

Don't spend anything and keep your recircs on there. :)

Mmmmm. lol. Didnt see that one coming! Would prefer the extra noise to scare people if im honest.

dont listen to Si, he's 95 this year :tongue:

 

TurboXS are usually claimed to be the loudest. i have Apexi on mine and i'm happy with them. look to spend £200-£275 for new. a tonne less than that for 2nd hand

I have blitz, and they are going, im p1ssed off with them messing up, i come to traffic lights, or slowing down and it makes the car stall, there is a serious issue with loads of dump valves and 300's, im getting the recrics put back on

if they make the car stall, they are opening too soon. or not soon enough, I forget which.

my Apexis weren't set up tight enough, and were letting air into the engine on idle which caused my Z to try and stall. a quick tighten up and theyre fine!

Hello mate - I have the same problem with mine. I read about tightening them up somewhere, so I gave it a go and thought that I had, but it's not made much difference. Am I right in thinking that it's a case of undoing the locking nut on the end of the cylinder and then screwing in the allen bolt a bit?

 

Sorry for the hijack Bradley, but this might help you out too if you go down the apexi route ;)

yep i went down the dump road but gone back to me recircs.:)
