The forge 007 DV is your best bet. I have it and have had no problems. The race DV is mainly for higher boost applications and has different spring rates that you can throw in depending on the boost you run.

Personally I don't see the reason to spend that much money on a diverter valve. I mean go for it if you want. Maybe someone can explain the reason for getting one of these.

I chose the Bosch "Sport 110" diverter valve which is stock on the Porsche 996/911 Turbo. It can handle high boost. AFAIK the only difference between it and the 710N is the spring.

Part number is 0280142110 ... I bought mine off thepartsbin.com for about $55.

EDIT:

Oh, I see the sound is important to some people. I guess thats why. To each his own.

not really... unless you get rid of the stock intake box and throw in a cone filter(evoms, lltek, carbonario). A bov will give you that sound... but for a price(not good for our cars and you will get flamed to hell)
