Escort boy Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 is this possible because i want a dump valve on me car. Theres probably some reason why not like you cant add one to a zetec etc. Thoughts please, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 It's very possible, and also quite expensive. You'd be better off buying one of those bling-bling electronic fake dump valves unless you want to spend quite a few grand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K3V HA Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Mine made me pay 120 extra when i went from 1.8 gti to 2.0 turbo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escort boy Posted October 5, 2004 Author Share Posted October 5, 2004 Thats a lotta cash to do the conversion, i think id be best just keeping with it for another 18 months until i graduate from uni then buy a car which has high horsepower as standard like an impreza with a turbo on it already. That way i would be able to sell my car without losing too much money on what i paid for it and will get a change of car in the process, do you guys reckon thats a good idea?
