Default Which DV should i buy?

What's the difference between a 007P and a 007PA from forge or should i just get a different one all together?

BTW: for my plan's in the future is to get the ECU chipped and get it lowerd that's it.


Thanks guy's

The P-A is just an 007 with an ajdustable vac line cap for people who have very tight sapces due to custom turbo plumbing, etc. All you need is this. I'd try to find a used one in the classifieds or ebay. Since they are indestructable there is no reason to buy new unless you can't find it used, or just like brand spankin new stuff.

Yeah I'd stay away from the fake ones. Thats the kind of crap you end up spending more money replacing than it would have cost to do it right the first time

I would suggest staying away from Flee-Bay and finding a good price from an actual business that has a online site. Just too many scams on Ebay to make even worth using anymore.

THere are plenty of good aftermarket BPV's out there and most of them are of the exact same design.

Takes pretty minimal machining skills to make an operable or knock-off bypass valve. Somehow I'm been able to avoid scams on ebay by studying sellers feedback. I got my Forge valve for free, but I'd give something like THIS a try.

I don't know why you'd pay someone to install a dv. All you need is a screw driver and maybe some instructions.
