Ya it make sure you call them before you go over there. They get busy quick (racingzone does) it takes about an hour to put on

The 710N valve is the OEM diverter valve that comes on the Audi TT 225hp.
It has a stronger spring and stronger materials than the stock a4 valve.

35 bucks at the dealer. Just ask for the 710N TT diverter valve. Or get it at www.ECSTuning.com

I have a 99 1.8tq Manual with the sports package and chipped. Is a diverter valve the thing i should upgrade next? I won $100 playing roulette on my vacation this last week so i want to use it on my car

Thanks

Chips and Diverter Valves go hand in hand. If you get a chip...get an upgraded diverter valve. 710N for any application short of a K04 or better turbo upgrade. The least expensive best bang for the buck. Installation is very easy as long as you can get under the car. The DV is located on the passanger side of the engine bay.

Its really not that hard. It was the first thing I've ever done to any car besides driving them. The DV is probably one of the easiest cheapest most useful upgrades you can possibly do to your Audi. The 710N DV holds a greater amount of pressure than your original 710A model DV. This DV can even be useful on cars that are not performance enhanced. Higher priced DVs are gonna be made to hold even higher amounts of pressure than the 710N and most likely made from rugid metals. The pressure generated by just a chip will not be enough to blow out a 710N..and in the unlikely event it DOES blowout..your only 35 big ones in the hole. Some go for higher priced DVs right away. This is a good idea if you ever consider upgrading your turbo, but once again..a 710N will only put you out $35 so its pretty much a win win situation.

Don't be afraid of the Diverter Valve..I didn't even get my hands dirty when I replaced mine.

Awesome. I have to go to my dealer and have them check out my on board computer screen (on the dash) because it is only readable in the morning when its cold. Im going to have them change the oil (synthetic oil for sure) and i guess ill buy the Diverter valve. Is there a tutorial anywhere on how to change it out? Im not joking when i say im not good with this kind of stuff.
