Forge Blow off Adaptor

[dannychapman10]

Any experience with these?
I'm sure I've seen somewhere that the atmospheric ones aren't got for the car?

i need some one local to take me for a spin with it on so i can see if i like it or not

I'm just wondering if it causes any issues with the MAF as I'm sure I've seen some cars through a wobbler because of it.

 

[Smee]

i have seen some where that some one had an issue once but i think that was more down to a crap fitment.

that said if you search for HKS DV some one on here had one fitted and some one explained why it was a bad idea to fit atmospheric DV. i know this isnt atmospheric but it must be losing a little of the required recirc value and play a little mind trick on the sensor

That is atmospheric mate. I guess once it's blown hot air out, it must suck cold air in which cant' be good

 

[Smee]

well id of thought was good cold air is better than warm air it more dense better combustion

The turbo is getting rid of excess boost, not trying to pull air back into it, I'm sure someone will be along soon to help us haha

 

[Smee]

hope so. although i think i know what is coming

been watching more vids and people are talking about compression surge back through the turbo but i dont get it. isnt it litrally a spacer with 3 holes in it?

i dont get how this is ok for a car and a fully atmospheric is bad

but then im no mechanic

Got one fitted.. Had it on for over a year.. No issues

Get a tiiisch on low boost.. and when u get into the high revs get the same but with a little flutter.

All Good

Have you got a CAI at all? And also the new revision DV?

This is an adapter to basically give the sound of a blow off valve. It works with the re circ valve but lets out just a little bit of air to give the desired sound where as the rest will be recirculated. Blow off valves arent good for the enguine as the maf has told the enguine management that there is air going through the system but the blow off valve will dirvert this to atmosphere. Therefore leading to the enguine running to rich.
Hope this helps. I ordered one the otherday from awesome so will fit it and report back. Theres loads of threads on this if you take a look

if your city drving like crawling in traffic does it go off then?

or do you only get teh noice over 4k rpm?

You can make it go off then. If you are going along at 30 and press on pedal then lift off you will hear the tiiisch. not very loud mind you.

I may sell mine end of the month. Depends on how it sounds with the EVOMS. If it sounds better without the Adaptor and just having the chatter of the EVOMS then i will part with it

 

[Smee]

let me know first dibs

I have one fitted to my vehicle and i am loving it.
not to loud and not to soft.
agree with PAT its very easy to fit on the Cupra
