Bailymotorsport dump valve????
Hi all,
I am thinking of buying a Bailymotorsport dump valve for my 04 reg WRX. I was just wondering if anyone has used one and if they reccommend them or some thing else. I thought about buying a HKS blow off valve but do not know if they are worth the extra money. I also thought about a Forge dump valve but do not know the plus or minus points about them. Ultimately I am after one which sounds good and does the job that it is designed for but do not know much about all of the different ones. Also, I am told that they are easy to fit and just wondered how long that they will take to fit. ![]() Any ideas would be grately apreciated. ![]() Cheers guys (and girls). ![]() |

Hi John - have got a Forge recirculating dump valve which runs well but doesn't make the whoosh noise of a VTA (vent to atmoshere) dump valve. My recirc one makes a kindoff metalic ping sort of noise which I like - it also doesn't give any slow running problems that I've heard VTA's can give ( I think more so when your running higher boost levels)
Have a look at Forges bits (I think they do a tasty stealth black model to match your paintwork) on http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/ ![]() ![]() Let us know how you get on |

Needless to say as well - a dump valve won't give you anymore BHP it simply releases the boost pressure off more quickly when you back off the gas to stop the turbo blades stalling (someone will give us a far more technical explanation than me!!) i.e. when changing gear etc - so I have found I tend to have less lag between upchanges and it is less jerky when on and of the accelerator.

Thanks for your help guys. This has given me a good insight into BOV's/dump valves. I have just brought a Baily Motorsport off of my friend who has just sold his Impreza, for £30. I will fit it this afternoon and see how I get on. If I am not happy with it I can always sell it for what I brought it for and will give the HKS item a go.
![]() I dont think it should be too hard to fit. I hope I do not break anything in the process!!!! ![]() Thanks for your help. ![]() |
