Dump Valve

KEEPLS

Guest
I have a Seat Ibiza Cupra 2001 and I really want it to dump!! I have a GHB re-circulating and atmo dump valve on it but makes a tiny little noise!! I have been told that if my car has a throttle cable and is not fly by wire I can just put an atmo on it!! Is this true?? If not is chipping the way forward as I have been told if I put a revo chip on it, it can have a atmo dump valve on it!!! I do want more power of course but number one at mo is getting it to dump!!

If i get it chipped whats the safest/best bhp to take it up too (dont want it going bang in a year) I have been told can get quite a lot from them!!

Please help!!

Roughly between 4 - 7k rpm!
Atmospheric dump valves don't work well on VAG engined cars at all. I think everyone will agree that recirculating dump valves are the only safe ones to use on these cars!

As for the noise your after, a simply remap will emphasise the noise although it will not be like a proper atmo.

There are many remaps available for these cars. Just a few:

1) RevoTechnik http://www.revotechnik.com/
2) Jabbasport http://www.jabbasport.co.uk/
3) APR http://goapr.co.uk/

The list goes on...

Your engine really isnt capable of running an atmospheriec DV i'm affraid. Will cause all sorts of running propblems.

Best thing to do if you want a nice loud sound is get the following:

1. Remap (REVO, APR etc) - Will increase boost pressure.
2. FORGE 007p Dump Valve
3. Open filter induction kit - (Jabbasport, RAMAIR etc)

Lots pf people on here run a similar setup and we do get quite a loud woosh. :)

I personally run a REVO remap, Bailey Recirc Dump valve and a BMC Carbon induction kit and my woosh is very loud :)

Hope that helps.

Take off the atmospheric dump valve and sell it on ebay

Buy a Forge dump valve (recirculating)

If you want the sound then the guys above are right it will be louder with a remap however, firstly I would suggest fitting a cold air intake.

Carbonio system - avaialble from Awesome Gti
Dynatwist or RAM AIR systems from Badger 5

These systems give induction roar, and you hear the turbo and dump valve more......trust me you won;t be dissapointed

I don't think the throttle cable has anything to do with it. The only way round it is to run a completely differnt type of management (big bucks), which incedently usually run a throttle cable. The cable itself has nothing to do with it.

I know there are a few vids on here somewhere in which you can here peoples recirc DV noise (with the above mods), and you'll see they really are quite loud :)
