eBay special ! Dump valve

Postby Tad » Tue Aug 12, 2014 11:57 pm

Whilst trawling through eBay I found this

eBay item https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171414961969

A dump valve ? I have had some proper cars in my time where a dump valve was justifiable but I have always been under the impression a diesel needed a recirculating valve ( no woooosh )

Seems like it would cause more harm than good !

Any ideas ?

Diesel don't actually need a dump valve at a as they have to throttle body to shut to cause any sort of stalling pressure to the turbo. So they are pretty pointless on a diesel.
