Default Bought the Diverter Valve Spacer.....

I just purchased the Diverter Valve spacer from Forge motor sports on Ebay for $66 with free shipping. I installed it today. Took about 50 mins to install. Didnt run into any problems for installing it at all. Let me tell you this. When I took it out for a test drive you can hear a nice and loud turbo spool and bowoff!!! Sounds awesome. You get alot of head turners lol. This thing doesnt joke around. For 66 bucks well worth it. I cant wait till tommorow to take it out and open it up again when i wake up! I reccomend this for anyone who likes that true turbo blow off sound. This will actually improve the life of the turbo bacause it will release the build up unused turbo pressure more qucker meaning less stress on the turbo fan. Thank you Forge!!!

i just bought the OEM upgraded piston DV and i'm feeling a really smooth feeling when shifting... can the forge DV spacer go along with the regular DV or does it replace the stock DV completely? if i can add it on i'll definitely consider buying one because of the reviews that people are giving it. let me know

Absolutely. You have to take your DV off, put the spacer on then your DV will simply fit over it. I think it will actually work better with yours then the OEM one. I have mine attached to the OEM DV but yours will fit fine if not better. And id get it man, its cheap and sounds great and no it doesnt replace the DV it simply attaches to it.

you have the manual tranny correct? I wouldn't think you'd get the same sound with the tip?...

Actually I think you would. Your controlling your cars shifting up to a certain point, i mean i beleive with a Tip when you get to a certain RPM it automatically shifts? It blows of when you let go of the gas not when you push in the clutch so the tip should work just as good
