As with Richard. CF is not my thing (visually) at all, but that does look very well made!! Nice work! :duffer:

Dumps Valves/ BOVs - Badass or Badness?
They seem to be mandatory for rev-happy boyos in RSturbos down Maccys and other such dis-respective establishments. :rofl: :) Yours has standalone management though Martin and +stupidbhp...so it's something worthwhile. :)

I always use to wonder if there was actually something wrong with the car whenever I used to hear them! :rofl:

Dumps Valves/ BOVs - Badass or Badness?
Mmm, interesting. Judging by the poll, most forum members would rather have their car running poorly and the noise of a Scania's airbrakes every time they changed gear rather than a good runner with no silly noise. :confused:

Dumps Valves/ BOVs - Badass or Badness?
Yeah, research most of my posts on DVs. Pros of DVs....silly noise...if you like that kinda thing. Cons : Causes rich running and hesitation. Conclusion: no car manufacturers have ever fitted dump valves to their own production vehicles and I've NEVER read of turbo damage caused by any type of compressor stall. The recirc valve should take care of this up to a certain point. Once you're past about 500bhp and running aftermarket engine management, then they have some sort of benefit. Fit them to a car with OEM management and you're basically messing up the fueling. Complete performance-hindering junk on most Z32s.

You're as bad as me anyway! :rofl: I saw you were the first person to say something to the dude driving like a chav! :rofl:

Complete and utter pointless willy waving chavy shite. :) Would rather hand in my turbos than fit something that messed up the running of the engine.

is your licence still valid
I think this is a case of : 'if you have a photo licence' then you will be fined if it expires after 10 years...? The DVLA will know whether you carry the new photo licence and subsequently the police will too. If a car is registered to someone with a photo licence, it'll simply give the ANPR reader an earlier driving licence expiration date.

12k!? For what?
Cause I haven't gotten round to it yet. The stock ones work well enough if they are a good set. I'll be buying some DV30s toward the end of the year.

No, I have a spare set I'm going to try. Mine are ok, but I can very very faintly hear the goosehonk is on its way.

Just flog yours and get a set of DV30 Bailey recirc valves. :)

Joint 300zx meet 20th June
Sunny and mild. About 18 - 20. Clear blue skies all day I think.

12k!? For what?
Yes Ted. I think Dougal would fit them as he would have no idea as to how rubbish they were. :rofl: He'd fit them to his Pat Mustard's milkfloat!

Arrrr roite. I getcha. :)

12k!? For what?
You're sensible enough and haven't fitted them anyway! :)

12k!? For what?
Cobblers it'll damage the turbos. Not a single car manufacturer fits atmospheric dump valves to its cars. You never read of damaged turbos due to pressure issues either. More people complain about poor running after fitting these things than anything else. DVs are dumping metered air in an operation for them to make their silly noise and will cause rich running, hesitation and a delay in boost pressure...not always noticeable, but because the ECU is working on the premise that any unused air is recirculated via the recirc valves, the above can always be expected when running stock management.

Car Stalled after burnouts
Celebratory burnouts by experienced riders/drivers on race-spec machines at Motorsport events are acceptable! :rofl:

Obama,s righteous stance
On that basis, are we still going to be angry with the Germans over WW2? I think not. The Bush administration did mess up. The Obama administration wouldn't have done what Bush did if we wound the clocks back 10 years. I've worked in Corporate environments. Yes, I agree, you have to deal with shit, but when it affects others, including the natural environment, that statement goes so far out of the window, you can't see it for the dust.
