Default Foolish statements havent stopped anyone yet from what I have seen! the term Worthless comes to mind

Everytime I am ready to blow off this back patting contest someone says something smart which I can use!

Default Bucks sometimes coming off of hard throttle.

I've tried mounting it both ways, no help.

Default have you checked all your lines? have you called TJM or where you got it?

lifetime warranty if it is in fact the valve.

Default Good to know, I'll check into it.

I would still like to try an R1, though.

Default when it comes to Diverter valves.. once you get into this category.. they all are the same..

you wont toss in the R1 and be amazed at the difference in performance increase. They all to the same job, until you start running 30 psi with BT applications.

Default I plan to get one. my 710 days are over. I'm tired of popping them and they're not smooth

for high RPM off throttle.

Default The differnce is that you dont have to service the R1...

since it's a diaphram type. The Piston types need "constant" attention. Lack of service will cause them to become sticky.

From personal experience they are very smooth in the Stage III A4 and the Stage III+ 225TT
