GFB DV+ T9351 diverter valve VAG 1.4-2.5L (GFBDVT9351)

Many vehicle manufacturers use an electrically controlled original valve, which all too often is defective or leaking straight from the factory. This causes a loss of power, which is even more pronounced on tuned vehicles because of the higher boost pressure. This is where GFB extends the DV+ range with a plug ’n play solution: the robust, anodised and CNC-machined aluminium housing of the GFB DV+ diverter valve closes this “hole” in the charge-air system, and the vehicle has noticeably more power and torque. GFB has demonstrably tested its effectiveness in several power measurements on the dyno! Since the GFB DV+ only replaces the original valve and the original control unit (the solenoid valve unit) is retained, it integrates perfectly. GFB’s DV+, on the other hand, responds much better, is cheaper, easier to fit and causes no “surging” or flutter. In addition, it needs neither different springs to adapt it to the respective boost pressure nor regular maintenance. It also withstands any boost pressure. The secret is that the piston seals by means of the applied boost pressure itself and not with the help of the spring. Through small openings in the piston guide housing, the pressure flows back into the valve unit and pushes the piston down by the boost pressure’s own force, pressing the piston with its rubberised underside against the stop and thus sealing the system under load. The so-called “pilot” (labelled “solenoid plunger” in the illustration below) now seals the piston’s “pressure chamber” airtight, so that inside the piston chamber pressure acts on a larger area than from below on the rubberised underside. As soon as a load change occurs (e.g. when shifting gears), the control unit lifts the pilot and the pressure can escape from the piston chamber, which causes the piston to rise and vent the excess pressure from the charge-air system. Advantages: - 100% sealed even at high boost pressures (flawless up to 2.5 bar) - noticeably more power and torque - made of aluminium (housing) and brass (piston): more reliability and durability on tuned vehicles - Faster boost build-up compared with an original diverter valve - Plug & play: easy installation within 10-15 minutes, as the original control unit is retained. Notes: - This valve can only be used in combination with the original solenoid valve unit. To do this, you simply have to convert the original valve. - The DV+ is installed between the flange and the control unit and is about 2cm high. There must therefore be enough space for the control unit to move 2cm “backwards”. *On the Audi S3 8V, Golf 7 R and Seat Leon 5F, the DV+ only fits with adaptation work or in combination with our turbo inlet. For this, a little plastic has to be ground off the outside of the control unit housing and the intake pipe; this is not necessary if you buy our turbo inlet. If you want to avoid this, please use this valve: GFB DV+ T9359. In a set with our diverter valve conversion kits you get this item at a lower price: >>HERE
