Default ***NOW SHIPPING*** A.W.E. Tuning DV1 Diverter Valve

Hi Everyone,

We've come up with a new, lower priced solution for the all too common problem of failed stock diverter valves.

Our new AWE Tuning DV1 Diverter Valve is the by-product of some extensive power development we've been doing on late model Porsches. DV failure on some of these models has been 100% absent.

Even when pushed to beyond 750hp, and no matter the climate or operating environment, we've yet to see one of these Porsche DVs fail.

It was a lot of leg work, but we were able to get exclusive access to this part, as it is normally not available separately from the turbo unit.

Using some clever and simple companion parts, we're excited to be able to offer this economical yet durable solution to the chronic torn DV issue.

No permanent modifications are required for install and it is designed as a serviceable and cheaper alternative to the Bailey Motorsport DV30. The Bailey Motorsport DV30 comes with a Lifetime Warranty vs the shorter 6 month warranty of this unit, hence the lower price.

Our DV1 Diverter Valve is a vacuum actuated Diaphragm Type Diverter Valve, as opposed to the Piston Type Valve manufactured by Bailey. Both designs have proven to be extremely reliable in street, track and dyno testing.


Some highlights:

Direct 1/2 hour bolt on with no permanent modifications to vehicle

Very similar response time to the OEM DV valve.

Extensively street, track, and dyno tested on multiple cars

Priced at $129.95 for the complete kit

Default I took my R1 off and replaced with 710N, but might go back to R1 now

I had some surging and fuel economy issues, but the valve swap didn't make a difference. I think my R1 is still fine and I may yet put it back on. I did like the responsiveness of the valve compared to the stock 710N valve.

I liked running it, but did not like the fact that it blew up in 8 months. Back to Hyperboost for me

Default The DV1 is 100% maintence free.

No need to lubricate or take it apart for any reason.

If for some reason you wanted/needed to take it apart to inspect something, you could do so easily.
