New (?) product from Forge. Blow off adaptor FMDVMCS

[notrix]

Anyone tried this on a THP?

I know there are other benefits of replacing the whole valve but since this is a way to get the sound without major modifications I'm willing to give it a try

Yup, should take about 10mins to fit, unscrew 3 bolts, screw the adapter and the new three bolts in. Simple.

I'm a bit sceptic about buying the whole blow off valve kit because I'm worried about voiding the warranty on the engine. With all the problems I see people here have with these engines the last thing I want is to have to pay for any repairs from my own pocket

The BOV you linked to is the same one I have in my glovebox after replacing it with the full recirc. It honestly takes no more than 10mins to remove so if ever you have to take the car in you could easily remove it.

As ever though, it's your car - I'll leave you to decide what you do with it

How's the sound? Will it be a significant change in volume in comparison with only the stock BOV?

Search for "Dangerousfish" on youtube, you should be able to find an old video I posted a while back of it.

It's considerably louder compared to the stock recirc.

Great tnx

Is FMDVMCS the correct part number for the DS3? I see some on ebay ment to fit the 207 gti which I though had the same engine but these are FMDVP207

Same engine, same part.

Will it alter mpg or put added stress on any other components?

[Dangerousfish]

Unlikely.

The BOV is literally there to release air that has been spooled for the turbo. If anything you'll see a loss in performance as the air will take longer to spool and hit the turbo again after it's already been released.

Any losses/gains would be fractional though.

Thanks, Ill leave it.
I think the sound would get on my nerves anyway.

I have it installed, had it since autumn... it hisses kinda loud, can hear it inside the cabin even if radio is off.
Anyways I'll keep it.
