Thanks.

Also looking for opinions on the diverter valve, I'm thinking of getting Concept 1 to do both at the same time.
I'm not quite sure which DV would be the best ?
opinions ?

Some folks upgrade to the Audi TT DV (dealership item). But the Forge 007 is maybe more reliable in the long run since it's completely metal and you can service the internals.

Sen Sen,

Your going to get alot of back and forth on DV valves....some love a select few brands. Some will also tell you to go with a hybrid DV. Unfortunaly, its going to have to be one of thouse choices you make and go with it. I looked at that website and i just ordered the Forged Hybrid...I want to try it out. If i dont like it, i will sell it and get something different. At the end of the day thats the fun part, modifying our car and seeing what we like best. Hope everything goes well for you.

I recall a reading a comparison write up on DV's a couple years ago. The bottom line was there were no differences between them from a performance standoint.

The cars at their shop right now, getting chipped and adding the VF DV.
I'm excited to see how it will drive with 93 octane.
Next is the clutch and intake.
