Just get it on dude, and make your own mind up which is better.:rolleyes:

You won't get an opinion on which one is best .Either ,neither or none .....DVs are gay ...that'll be the extent of the advice offered .
Just fit it and see if you think it is better :agree:

Asking which one sounds better is like asking if strawberry tastes better than raspberry. Everyone's has their own opinion.

BluntyR5GTT

25-11-2009, 18:10

gotta be strawberry haha :D ok ill get the bailey fitted and see which i prefer

my bailey didnt do the job, think it leaked boost slightly. no problems with the forge item which i have fitted now

get a hks ssqv.... it doesn't sound like a normal dump valve

forge group a is the loudest

bailey piston ones make a feeble tish

i just use the hks one or none depending on my mood

BluntyR5GTT

25-11-2009, 18:37

see it has a forge one on now but am not sure what kind, i asked the previous owner but he said it was already on when he bought it

If its got holes all way round the bottom half of the dump valve it'll be a diaphram type dump valve

now thats a sort of answer i was looking for lol, was there much sound diff between the 2 ?

:eek: my forge one got binned as i fort it was:chuckup::banned: leaky peice of pap:coffee:

the bailey has a nice airy sound and you can control it for a long dump at light throttle, you dont get the light throttle dump with the forge but at high boost has a nice high pitched sort of lazer dump, ha,
i have to admit i did prefer the bailey sound at first but now ive changed my mind :rolleyes:

oh yeah both of them are piston type....

you got to excuse the people on here :sad2: you need to run without a dumpvalve on here to hang with the big boys in the playground

But it is not healthy for the turbo, is it?

Ive had no turbo problems/wear running a lot of boost without a dumpvalve.

cars dont come from the factory with bailey dumpvalves etc so it must be tried and tested by now....

I have 2 dump valves from K-tec racing and I think that the answer that you are looking for is yeah they do sound nice.

I'm just curious as to why you want one that sounds the best??? Would you not want one that did its design job the best?? Whether it be a dump valve, no dump valve or a recirc.... This to me would make sense and that to me would get better answers and opinions.

Wanting one that sounds the best and loudest to me is wanting to be a chav and showing off to your mates.

"Lizen bruv, its gt a phat noize innit"

"Yh blud, you is me hero"

I think this is why you are getting a bit of stick maybe. Just my opinion though so I may be wrong.

I honestly believe having a dumpvalve (that failed) was the main cause of my engine blowing up. It was only a case of the reference pipe falling away slightly........ I dont have one now and MUCH prefer it?!

erm if you read my first post lad then it also asks the question what one is better suited to the r5 not just which sounds best

ive run all kinds of dumpvalves over the years since ownership in 2003, never had a problem with anyone of the ones ive used, no engine blow ups and no turbo failure

90% of turbo cars DO come with dump valves of the recirculating type these days because they do have a positive effect, and the reason most are recirculating is because most of them have air flow meters so you need to return the air thats already been measured

JRP

26-11-2009, 18:05

How many times has this been discussed? just out of interest? anybody know...

26-11-2009, 18:07

My old Impreza WRX came with a factory recirculating dv, I swapped it for a vent to atmosphere dv and it ran like a bag of nails, I put the standard one straight back on,

Cars with air flow meters must use a recirc dv or risk running very lean

Yeh he has sold them back to me, really set the car of nicely, Project ghost has had to step up a gear as no work now and ghost will be a daily runner.. :)

Or could it be the fact that manufactors don't want there cars producing the 'chatter' nosie so run a re-circ one to loose the noise.
