If nobody is running a GFB, would anyone be able to tell me what size OEM intercooler pipe is with the diverter valve prop on it? 20 mm?

No one here runs the GFB that I know of.... mainly because there are better options like a forge 007 or baileys Dv, and it MUST be hooked up DV style if you get the gfb becasue audi's(or any maf style car) will not run right when a bov or vta is used

Actually thats not true, You can have it as a percentage to blow to atmosphere and the rest divert.. Friend has a gli with one, and another friend has a a4 Frontrac with one....

well sure you can have them but that dosent mean they are good for the car. if any of the air goes to the atmosphere then you will run rich during that time becuase the ecu thinks that the air is there although it is really not.

I don't know I thought they were all the same. Ready to go out of the box. I know there are a lot of ppl that run them on the zine, and they all really like them, and have no problems. I think I may get one.

As long as you still have a certain percentage of air going back you will be fine, it wont run rich especially if you are running a high amount of boost. Thats what this post was about, what spring do I need to run to get the right percentage... I'm pretty sure its 60 divert and 40 atmosphere but I'm not sure....
