Diverter Valve for my car. Haha It like a blow off valve, but recirculates the air back into the intake. I am getting a great deal on a refurb direct from the manufacturer. My car is black, as is most of the engine compartment. Do I go with a black one and keep everything clean and quiet, or a nice polished one??

I'd say black, unless you're gonna chrome out more pieces. Smile

Black

I know some people who have blow off valves on automatic cars?:confused:
Blow off valves are fine on automatic cars. Thats not the reason it is a diverter valve instead. VW uses a diverter valve on their turbo cars because it essentially doesn't waste air. Why vent to the atmosphere when you can put it back in the intake? And black it is. That's what I was thinking as well.
u can bring that blazing fast vdub up to like 82.5 hp now? lol
diverter valves are mostly used on cars that are equiped with a maf system. i reccomend the black so it doesnt stand out.
black foo shoo
foo shoo? is that a new Chinese dish?

Fo' Sho


Speaking of VW's and 82hp, has anyone ever seen an old bug pop a wheelie and run in the quarter under 10 secs? Those are cool
Hahahahaha!! Awesome.

And yes, I have seen some crazy fast bugs. Just seems like a scary ride that I never want to be a part of.

Mike.... I like to refer to my 82 HP as 2 van power. I figure you have to be putting down about 40....
at the rear wheels! and my vans FWD lmao
