OEM 710n Valve, the one you are referring to, will always be better than any Piston-type DV Made no mistake. |

depends how you define "better" ![]() functionally yes it's better but if you will have to run out to buy another one when it fails compared to the piston ones which can usually last you the life of the car with proper maintenance. dk |

i got my car chiped at waterfest (it had 30k miles on it at the time) and right away the oem DV gave out and surging started like crazy. i took a trip to the dealer today, handed them like 30 something dollars for the bosch 710N DV and the car is now smooth as butter! why pay big bucks for a aftermarket DV when you can use a OEM piece that is not only used in the 225HP tt, the 337, and twin turbo posche? if its good enough for a 300+ hp porsche, i am sure it will stand up to 15+psi of boost from our little powerhouses! mark. |

Like pturner67 said, how do you find a 710N for $0-27? BTW, pturner67, nice links! ![]() |

glad you liked the links...wanted to find out some real verifiable answers to the DV questions...just did a search on yahoo for diverter valve comparison I actually went to the Audi dealership and told them the price on vwparts.com and the guy made me a deal...$25.99 plus tax I got rid of my Forge 007P and replaced with the 710N...tellin ya guys, there is a HUGE noticeable difference...thought I had surging before...turns out the Forge wasn't holding the pressure as well....now, my car is smooth as baby $hit if you have to replace the 710N (even if you pay $40 for it) in 50K miles and the Forge costs $125, you will also save an a$$load of money over the long haul...definitely worth it |
