Golf mk7 GTD - dump valve

[oscar.neill]

What would be the best dump valve for the new golf gtd mark 7 ? Can you give a link where i could order it ?

Hi and welcome aboard Oscar,
There's little point in having a dump valve on a diesel engine because you don't have a throttle therefore there's no danger of closing off the inlet manifold suddenly at high boost pressures and stalling the turbo.

So what your saying is it wont work or it wont be loud ? Ive seen some videos on youtube ?

You'll get the dumping noise but that's it really.

You can get a device to attach to your exhaust costs about a fiver same effect as a dump valve (woooosh)

Please don't - IMO it will ruin your car and practically pointless as stated!

You wonder why you'd take a £20k+ car and fit a barryboy special to it?

If you're youngish Oscar, I can understand you fitting the £5 sound box and best of all....it won't invalidate your guarantee like a dump valve would.

I'd leave it alone
