Hey matt,

YES!! It is worth getting as it is much much stronger than the original plastic bosch one.
It wont make a noise as this valve is a fully recirculating valve not and atmospheric one (which would make a tish noise) :D

If you want the noise then get a forge split r dump valve....but heard a few people have had problems with them :(

Hope this helps. :D

I run a 007p recirc valve and and jetex filter and it makes a nice noise, not as in your face as the usual 'dump valve noise'. Ive sure a few other people would vouch for this aswell! just my opinion though! :D

Yeah, actually cam is right matt, and i forgot to mention in my first post. If you have an open cone filter the dump valve will make a small noise but not over the top :D

Cam.....be a darling and post up a pic of your filter setup please mate 8)

Im pondering getting one you see......did it make much difference? Did....or does it bog the car down at all?

Cheers mate.

Alex will get a photo up later on today when i can, i cant really comment on weather i noticed a difference since i did it straight after the car was mapped, so felt totally different afterwards. But a cone filter would defiantly not have as many gains as what would be experienced from a panel filter, but saying that ive never had a problem. Was considering running a panel filter for a while see what i prefer!

No video of the noise sorry, someone else might?? or youtube is worth a try!
