Seat Ibiza Cupra - Fitting of Forge Split r/Splitter

[richp656]

Hello there!

I am a new owner of a Seat Ibiza Cupra and member of the forum!

I want to fit a Fitting of Forge Split r/Splitter but I am a bit unclear of how to fit... on the forge site it says:

Please Note: This valve requires installing the opposite way to the original Bosch Valve.

But then on the fitting instructions it says replace the standard valve with the Forge Split r/Splitter in same position?

Can someone with a ibiza cupra help or advise? Has anyone got a picture of a fitted Fitting of Forge Split r?

with you AAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the way on that

il say it again

god bless caveo for that pic

rich: the split-r may throw up a code or cause limp mode

The 1.8T engines are designed to have a recirc valve, not atmospheric

god bless caveo for that pic

dam right i love it,makes so much sense

 

[richp656]

I read on here somewhere that the only valves that can go these 1.8ts is the split r and the 007p.... any others will throw up a code or cause limp mode so thought a split r is fine??

Have you guys had problems with the split r??

 

[p34ch3y]

i you want this blow off sound,i would say to you the turbosmart kompact dual port is the very best one like this,just search it mate loads on here about all these valves

i have run the 007p + split r both where ok never had fault codes or limp mode with the split-r now bought a turbosmart dual port so will fit that tomorrow and see if its any better.

Turbosmart is awesome!

so funny i got a second hand sh*t R valve put it on got the right clicks on it drove it down the road. then took it straight off biggest waste of money and time. anyone want it? lol

 

[richp656]

Thanks chris_200120vt.. i'll look into the turbosmart kompact dual port in the next few days...

 

[richp656]

I think for now i have just got one of the Forge Split r's deliveried so i'll fit and see what its like...

ohh back to my original question.... chris_200120vt you said you had a Split r... i was just wondering about the confusing fitting instructions...
on the forge site it says:
Please Note: This valve requires installing the opposite way to the original Bosch Valve.
But then on the fitting instructions it says replace the standard valve with the Split rin same position?

Did you fit yours in the same as the standard valve?

Thanks chris_200120vt.. i'll look into the turbosmart kompact dual port in the next few days...

Sorry mistake before . . i meant thanks 'p34ch3y' i'll look into the turbosmart kompact dual port in the next few days...

And chris_200120vt let me no if the turbosmart kompact dual port better then the split r!!

I've got a split-R valve, never thrown any codes and does the job perfect, came on the car and have no reason to replace it, ah well!

The black hose that comes from the charge pipe (shinny silver pipe that runs across top of engine) should go to the port on the bottom of the valve, then the port on the side of the valve should go into the turbo intake pipe (the one with your air box/air filter on the end off) and don't forget the thin vac line that goes onto the small inlet on the top of the spilt-r

 

[richp656]

Thanks Righttoe... I'll put it on today i think and see what its like!
....it seems like there are alot of people who have them and haven't had a problem but a few people just don't like them!!

I'll report back how it goes!!!...

Still don't understand how people don't find the 007P loud enough with a cone filter tbh
