FORGE DUMP VALVE BLOW OFF VALVE KIT FOR CITROEN DS3 FMDVDS3A

Description

Forge Dump Valve Kit Citroen DS3 1.6 Litre Turbo(FMDVDS3A)
This Blow Off valve is for the Citroen DS3 1.6 Turbo engines, that

have the electronically controlled bypass valves. It is recommended for

any vehicle where the boost pressure has been increased by an ECU

software upgrade and for unmodified vehicles operating in warmer

climates, as a solution to the many failures that have occurred.

The problem is that diaphragm retaining ring is made from very thin

plastic that goes brittle with heat cycles, and eventually fails.Unfortunately

the failure doesn’t always result in a check engine light as the valve

can still be blown open by the boost pressure, so you may not be aware

that you are losing power due to this.  This prevents the diaphragm from

sealing This particular failure can also result in the valve falling

apart upon removal from the turbo, and in extreme cases, Forge have heard

of bits of plastic entering the turbo resulting in serious damage.Forge’s alternative is a fully engineered solution offering both significantly

improved reliability. Their valve is piston based , with no diaphragm to

fail, and of all aluminium construction, it replaces the original unit

with a pressure/vacuum operated piston valve that still also retains the

desirable OEM ECU control over valve actuation. The valve has been

proved on the VAG scene for many years. The spring is interchangeable

for different levels of boost, and the solenoid is plug and play with

the wiring harness which is included.
