Your absolutely right shits sick got it for mine too.

Been long time lol. Have you used the main spring or just without it?

Exactly!

Just about every tuner video on youtube has stupid music assaulting your ears. It is annoying as F.

Thanks very much for your feedback! We're glad you're loving the valve :)

@@gfbvideos hi noticed there's 2 versions from authorised sellers. Which one is the newer, revised one? The one with 3 vent holes or only 1 vent hole in the housing where the brass piston seats in?

@@JH-sc7cs The one with 1 hole is the more recent version. There is no functional difference between the two, it is purely for manufacturing efficiency improvements. If you have questions about a specific seller please contact us and send links to support@gfb.com.au

Hi Andrew, Depending on your level of modification it may be normal to hear some flutter under certain conditions if you choose to use the main piston spring. I would suggest getting in touch with our engineers at support@gfb.com.au and send some video of what's going on and info about your car so they can take a look

Glad to hear you're enjoying the valve! I'm not sure what you're referring to about the piston sorry. If you can let me know what vehicle it's installed on I can give you a bit more information about how your specific valve works

@@gfbvideos in my 2.0tfsi, the diverter valve is positioned “upside down” so the piston its facing the floor. Just for curiosity, how it holds himself on site? By the pressure turbo makes?

@@eduardosq99 Yes the piston is held closed by boost pressure. The area difference between the front and back sides of the piston mean that there is a greater force acting to hold the piston closed

Not sure if it will prolong the life of the turbo but it's designed mainly to improve throttle response recycling the air into the intake, it will definitely not add any more boosts.

You don't have to modify the OEM solenoid, but you do need to completely disassemble it, meaning the little plastic ring that holds the blue seal needs to come out. But you don't need to modify anything.

It will work with the plunger spring, however at higher boost pressures the valve will blow open. This may or may not be an issue depending on how much boost pressure your car makes. If you purchased the part new and the spring was not there it may be covered under warranty. Please contact our engineers at support@gfb.com.au

@@gfbvideos thanks for this. The car is stock and not tuned at all. But as long as I know it'll run fine as it is I can order a sping before tuning. 👍

Hi Siegbert, Only the T9356 will work with the N13 engine. The T9357 is to suit the N20 engine. You can search your vehicle on our website to display the correct fitments.

@@gfbvideos Hi, thanks for the quick respond. Got my T9356 today and already installed it. It works great. No more starting weakness, no more giant turbo hole between gear shifts. Im also happy to see that there is no error code reported by the ecu(big spring installed). This thing is worth every cent.

Great Aussie product though, hey Paul

Hi, the issue on most of the vehicles the T9352 is intended for is clearance, as the VTA is quite a bit taller than the DV+ version. A little secret, the VTA we sell for the Mercedes (T9458) will fit the same turbo and diverter valve as the T9352, but it probably won't have enough room around it to fit. If you can let me know what vehicle you've got, I can advise if you've got a chance of fitting one on there. Best to contact us through our support channel via the website, as we may need you to send some photos of your factory diverter valve.

@@gfbvideos I've got a Peugeot 508 1.6 THP. Same as the 207 and mini

@@cjerp The location of the diverter valve on the 508 is actually different to the Mini, which in your case works in your favour. We have had a customer fit a T9458 to a 508, however the top of the solenoid does press against the plastic turbo intake pipe, which is why we don't list it as an official fitment. If you'd like to see a photo of the installation please contact us through support.

i dont mean to be off topic but does someone know of a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the login password. I appreciate any tips you can give me

@ Instablaster :)

@Ruben Camdyn thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Ruben Camdyn It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass :D

@ You are welcome =)

Hi Jordan, Sorry to hear about your valve issues! We do have lifetime warranty on our parts, so if you can send us an email at support@gfb.com.au we'll be happy to help you sort that out

Rick Leece it costs more = less profit.

Hi Walid, Thanks for your feedback! We're glad you're loving the throttle response of the DV+ While some people may be looking to get that flutter noise, the purpose of a diverter valve is specifically to avoid this. Flutter is the noise created by compressor surge which is potentially harmful to the lifespan of the turbo. This happens when there is excess pressure and low flow, such as when the throttle closes The diverter valve is designed to release excess pressure and avoid this.

Fair comment about oiling during installation, but periodic maintenance/oiling is not something that is required. The anodised bore is extremely hard wearing and does not need oil for proper operation or longevity. We only suggest it during installation (in the instructions, obviously I neglected to say in this video) as it's a bit like breaking in an engine - the microscopic high spots left over from machining on the piston will be flattened during the first week or so of operation, and a bit of oil is beneficial for this process. Ongoing however, oiling is not required. If you find your valve is getting stuck, it is likely a different cause, and removing and oiling it is masking that cause. As we mention in the instructions, the piston to bore clearance is extremely close, and it's possible there is some very minor distortion or damage on the piston that you could only detect with precision measuring equipment. Please contact us here if you have any concerns about this gfb.com.au/contact-us/tech-support/

@@gfbvideos after oiling and reinstallation no code appeared yet thank you for your comment :).

@@HybridShedIraq If that was your experience and it solved the problem once and for all, that's good news. However, if it continues to occur, I'd suggest contacting us via the tech support link in my reply above. My point was that even if it did solve it for you, for the benefit of people reading these comments it is not a required ongoing maintenance technique - as I mentioned above, if you do have to do this regularly it's a band-aid that is masking another underlying issue.

Hi. So now, five months later no problem ? No stuck piece ? Dont need to re oil it ? Id like to know before install it on my 7R golf. Thanks for your reply

Hi Mohamed, We've just replied to your email on the topic. Feel free to reply if you need any more info

@@gfbvideos thanks a lot for your reply, very nice explanation. Another thing, I wonder where does the blow off sound come from given that the design is closed from every where and why does it sound a little louder after I installed the DV+?

@@MohamedTarek-qm3vf The sound comes from the intake. The air is re-circulated back into the pre-turbo side of the system, so depending on what intake you're using you may hear the air vent. The stock filter and intake is designed to block out these noises, so you're less likely to hear them. With an aftermarket intake that's less restrictive to noise, you should be able to hear it. The DV+ shouldn't really have any effect on the volume. It may be that you're just listening for it more, or it may be that something else has changed

Thanks for the feedback, you'll be glad to know we've stopped using background music. You can tell this video was made 8 years ago by engineers, now we use proper media people so we can stick to engineering products!
