the car i am describing has a ball and spring mbc.

 

turbosmart only makes gated... aka bleed valves

 

Hey guys, just thought I'd chime in quick. My 225Q TT is pretty much stock, except for the usual chip/intake/dv. However, I've had an electronic exhaust cutout (2.5") for a while now so I figured I'd let you guys know how it is.

First of all, there isn't much room under the car the work with, so the cutout had to hang down a little bit... I'm also on coilovers, so I do scrape it. I barely ever do, only on steep driveways and any speedbump [8D]

With the dump closed, I do not notice any performance loss due to "added backpressure" if it really is an obstruction. But even if I did, when I want max results I will open it.

With the dump open, yes turbo lag is reduced a little bit and spool time is quicker. However, I DO NOT BOOST MORE. I might make a little more boost in a higher gear (because you obviously can't hold 20psi in every gear, you start to lose some as you switch gears) but I never spike higher or anything like that. I have a boost gauge and even in first or second gear, I spike at 22-23psi every time whether the dump is open or closed.

 

I'd be sourcing the 2 regulators, and the check valve, you'll need fittings and tubing.

I have 1 definate, and 2 maybes for boost machine 'kits'?

BTW, you exhaust cutout guys totally hijacked my thread. I might as well give it to you now, what do you want the heading changed to? ; )

 

We are sorry matt, out bad

Phrost, i thought you just said you sold the TT?

 

Matt - you can change it to Ryan's Exhaust Cutout Thread..

BTW - you were talking about this too at H2O. And you're not even selling a complete BM kit.. just the valves?!

 

If I take stuff out of one box, and put it into seperate boxes, I'll pass out the goods at cost, if I do the work of assembling them, I'm gonna want to add some $$ for my time. They're simple enough, anyone should be able to finish them w/o a problem, not to mention, I apparently need to spend more time sleeping, so using my time isn't my fav. idea at the moment.

BTW, I was talking about this at H2O? I totally don't remember.

 

cincy, it is totally listed as a bleed valve but looky here.....does this make sense? my entire issue might have to do with turbosmart....maybe. i dont know? cant be sure until we try something else. but as you can see there is definately a ball and spring. also sean aka donsupreme said he took it apart and saw a ball and spring.

sorry for the thread jack actttung. [8D]

 

eh, whatever, I wasn't really using it anyway... : P

 

No, I never said I was selling it. I am going to soon though, either a private sale or trade in... I can't decide. Spring time latest she will be gone
