Powervalve is boost controlled so you need to wire it up, don't ask me how
lolThink its just a similar sort of process to wiring a boost gauge
Anyone Stage 2 with 3" downpipe & mid pipe but OEM back box

i think I paid £570 fitted for the downpipe and then £550 for the cat back IIRC
Well worth it IMO
For the powervalve system to work you need a feed off the inlet manifold/pcv valve. You have to install a boost tap and run a 4mm hose from the boost tap to the powervalve on the exhaust which is on the mid box.

Same connections as a boost gauge on the pcv/inlet and it's not a wire, it's a hose.

If you only go for the catback, do you still need to wiring this?

You need the BCS downpipe to connect the Powervalve to. But BCS make and sell non powervalve cat backs which don't need connecting up.
they dont do the downpipe for the FR, so i got the milltek DP fitted with the stage 2 DPF delete.
Ive just the back box coming from BCS.
Exactly what I said
Lol.
It must be a non powervalve back box?
Am i the only person sick of hearing the letters B...C...S... in every other thread, as if it's the best thing since sliced bread?
...thats because it is?
and you're just sour because you don't have one

Ha ha if i had £1000 + burning a hole in my pocket it would be better spent than on a BCS exhaust.
As nice and as pretty as they are, it does the same job as any other 3" TBE. You only see the exhaust tip once it's fitted mind
Mine cost me half what a BCS system costs, is a BCS system twice as good? Sounding twice as nice or offering any additional gains over what i have? Nope.

Sorry tight arses
Yeah I have said before that its a shame that such a nice bit of kit goes under the car, but the tips look nice and they actually fit the diffuser properly.
I have the powervalve system, do any of the pleb brands offer that?
.....no.
Do you ever hear of BCS downpipes cracking?
........no.
You keep your cheap sh1te and I will be enjoying my trouble free powervalve exhaust that sounds better than yours and doesnt drone like yours

Lol I love how wound up you're getting over an exhaust system, if you don't like it, then so f**k, no one is interested.
Would rather have a car that has the best components on it, than a bodged together car.

Hi Rob
Comes with a connector pipe which makes it plug and play.

So maybe it still does...
