RE: DV
there is no performance difference between most dvs.. maybe throttle/boost response.. but hardly..
your not changing the wastegate, your changing the electronic acuator (n75h).. you can change it if you want, its all up to you if you want more boost,

RE: DV
Quick question on the subject of the 710N. This morning i replaced the stock DV with the 710N, ( did this while changin oil, kill two birds with one stone). roughly 2 hours later the MIL (malfunction indicator light) popped on and hasn't shut off. Drove around a bit and the car seems to be running absolutely fine. Will check the hose clamps tomorrow just to make sure they are on tight enough. Car details listed below
99 a4 1.8t quattro manual
No modifications except for the following....
710n (primary reason for replacement was i bought this car used almost a year ago, has roughly 94k miles on it now and figured id replace it before it went bad whilst doing regular maintence on the car)
larger capacity oil filter
resonator and mid-muffle delete.
I wouldnt think that the removal of the mid-muffler and resonator would set off the O2 sensor seeing as it is past the cat... Note* Car is not chipped; Friend states that the new dv requires higher psi to operate, but from using the almighty search function and reading up i was coming to the conclusion that it doesn't require more boost, yet just is stronger and able to handle higher psi levels. Am I correct in my evaluation?
