No need to recirculate the air man! I just bought the 004 dual piston dump valve for my 02 and I have no problems at all. No codes, no knocking, no nothing. Sounds amazing. Get one man, you wont regret it.

can you do that? i thought that the valve was set at 70/30 and the turnable **** was just to tighten the spring based on how much your boosting

no you can open it up completely and move the diaphram thing over and have a bigger hole on the horn side or smaller hole...

Jc61990, What did you find to be the best setup for the splitter boosting 17psi?

i cranked it down so the noise wasnt too loud, its been great. idk exactly how many clicks but it takes a little tweaking. i did it till i liked the sound.

There is no performace losses, only gains. Ive also noticed that my intake temp is down because all the hot boost air isnt being recirculated back into the system. Its a bit loud but i love it. Highly recommended.
