Default is anyone here running an n75k valve without going into limp mode?

i was originally planning on going with the n75j valve because of the overboost problems everyone has with the k valve when going up hills.

however, i called dahlback and they told me to just go straight for the n75k valve. the reason that they gave me was that the n75k only makes the b6s and higher go to limp mode because of a difference in the eletrical system that is supplied to the valve. b5s are supposedly not prone to this problem.

but there are no posts of the n75k valve working well here. since my chip is a dahlback chip, and the n75k is designed by them, im assuming the chip takes into account the valve (which is why i'm experiencing surging on the stock valve). anyone here running dahlback software + n75k valve? doubt it. anyways, looks like i'll just get the n75k and see how it does, probably the first/only person on the forums with a 2001 and dahlback software.

they also told me not to ask anyone on the forums, and not to listen to you guys. but frankly, i trust some of your opinions more than theirs.
