Guest, 🚨New Stock alert: Premium CUPRA valve caps now available in the store 👉 Order now from the merchandise store
Yes it is. In reverse the boost pressure is acting on the base of the piston rather than the side as fitted the oem way. Much better way should be like it from factory but the noise it makes isn't to everyones liking. Get an 007 mate better than split r.
Ok so to "reverse it" just put the side part on the tip yarr? Split r is in the post anyways, ill try my 007p in reverse this evening!
ok jus put it in reverse, feels the same and makes just a lil cherp noise 
haha - bit louder but still waiting for my split r!
Now just need new vac hose for the top!! Trying to figure out where it goes tho....... its in two sections?!

I can see why people get annoyed with the split-r, after fitting mine the right way round (previous owner???) i've been fiddling with the settings no end to try and get it just right. I think it is just a case of fine tuning to individual cars and not a fundamental problem with it. It certainly sounds quite nice now in an understated way.
Sweet, yer im gona pop it on - let it all the way off anticlock wise and then what, clockwise 22 clicks wasnt it for a standard LC? Should be here 2mz!!
Is there a graph showing different BHP and the rough number of clicks? Be useful to know as a starting point!

First post here! Sorry!
I have just bought a Cupra Leon 180. It came with a Bailey Valve when i bought it, obviosuly its not the favourite here, and im going to buy the Forge Spltr.
Im completely new to turbo cars let alone the 20v Turbo engines in this car (i owned an e36 M3)
what advantages will i gain from this Forge valve?
When adjusting the "clicks" what exactly is this doing?
thanks for any help

Hes right!!! i have not heard of many saying nice things about the spliter valve on here. just dont bother with it i had mine at 23 clicks and it brought in limp mode twice one was on a long journey!!! i was not impressed, so put my trusted 007p back on! No trouble
Ahh ok. So the 007P it is! How many clicks roughly for the Cupra 180?
Fancy fitting it for us as your in Southampton your not that far away ; )

Got the 007p in reverse, its boosting well but that squeek - really?!!! lol!! The split r arrives today, ive heard now 16 - 23 clicks for an LC! lol!!!
Ill start at 16 and if its dumping boost ill turn it up!

Its soo easy mate!!! you can have it done it under 30 mins just taking off the one use clips are the hardest part and even thats easy!!!!
The split r is the one you adjust the 007p is a direct replacement no need to adjust

i got a split r with an open cone and i have it as tight as i can the car runs sweet as a nut and i get a little bit of chatter sometimes too.
ok so got the split r in my hand - and looking down on top, all the way anticlockwise to let it off then 16-23 clicks clockwise yer?
Brains fried - im sure ill come to me when I fit and fiddle this evening! lol

haha cheers mate, how would i know if its dumping boost
My bailey valve starts whistling very low down the Rev range, is this right?
007p on order, although is it really safe to have it in reverse, i take it that it just makes a little whistle in reverse lol.
Forge 007p is the best dump valve, tested and proved. God knows why anyone would want anything different.
Well Put the split r on yesterday - surely annoying everyone who was left in the office after work with constant revving and fiddling, spent about half an hr setting it up there and then - and constant tweeks on the drive home NO error messages, went for a spirtful country drive and motorway for about an hr so it had the complete range, and still no error code this morning
Feels EXACTLY the same as my 007p but has a lovely woooosh to it. It doesnt chatter at low revs like my mates does.
Fingers crossed ive got it all set up properly! hehe - but LOVING the split r!!!!!
