I have an '04 Jetta 1.8T and a friend of mine suggested that I put on a Bosch 710n DV (from Audi TT) to replace VW's OEM DV, as the OEM one can leak boost with wear. What are the potential advantages/disadvantages to doing this? Has anyone here done it on their turbo? I wanna get the facts before I spend $40+ of money I don't have very often.

There are unspecific plans for returning the corrado.
Got the info from a german guy at VW.
TT diverter is worth it...
plus it's easy to replace. I got less surge from this. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Since you have an AWP, the stock diverter valve already is a 710N, it should be good for a while, but if youre thinking about adding power, look into getting a forge

Stock you do NOT have a 710N. It is close, but the material making up the diaphram is a thicker, weaker substance. Tests performed by enthusiasts have revealed that the stock 1.8T DV's diaphram tears much more easily, so therefore has a higher propensity to leak boost.
P.S.- Nice name

u shouldn't really consider it "one of those expensive ones"... forge and stratmosphere are the norm around here.

a new dv won't give you power per se, it will just hold on to boost better than a damaged one. the more expensive ones are usually piston tyle valves, while the stock and 710N dv are of the diaphragm type that can tear after time and under stress.
