ATTN: 225 TT owners, look inside!!*kits now avaliable*
I am in the process of making custom built DV relocation kits similar to the origional one I made for my car over 6 months ago. The kits will be complete with everything except vac. line(can be found at any autoparts store). Kits will be made from all metal construction and utilize rubber hoses rather than non-necessary silicone to keep cost down. the kit will work with both side fed valves(like forge007, stock, hyperboost, etc.) and bottom fed valves(like the forge splitter).
The current kits will only work with the stock rubber boost hose, I do plan to later make ones that will work with the larger diameter aftermarket boost hoses. I have not figured pricing yet but expect it to be a fraction of the cost of the forge relocation kit.
keep a eye here for future pics and updates.

You want your valve as close to the throttle body as you can put it, relocating it to the cold side gives you faster boost recovery and not to mention dumping cool air into the turbo inlet pipe is much better than hot air.

cool. little tricks like that are good to know. I've seen lots of people talk about them, and seen ads for the kits, but never a real explanation on what good it does. anybody got a link to more info?

The prototype will be finished tomorrow, if I'm happy with it then I'll get to making more, if not then I'll make any necessary changes. but so far it looks good. I might have a silicone boost hose compatible one done later this week.
