So you can block off at the turbo and just relocate and run a regular DV like in the 1.8T, which has shown to be more reliable

Re: What is the heck is this Diverter Valve Block Off from ATP? (rracerguy717)

They're selling this, but the other parts listed in the description for this to work don't appear to be available. That's my confusion. It appears to be half-baked/premature.

well if you have an intercooler or anything you can weld a bov flange on any charge pipe and use a bov
i happen to like the tial used it on my last car too

Would their be enought pressure? Like people with 1.8ts when they put a FMIC, they would put to big of an intercooler, and there wasn't enough pressure to make the bov work?
 
Finally!!!
I have been running my Greddy Type-RS inline with my stock DV just cuz I had it lying around from my old 1.8T set up. I tried blocking off the stock DV before but was unsuccessful. I did the hard part already and mounted my Greddy to the stock IC pipe, and now all I gotta do is purchase this! YES!
And I just bought a new "C" valve for nothing, BAH.
 
Oh, and when I had the forge spacer on (death by noise) ... I didn't recieve any CEL for not re-routing air back into the intake track, hopefully it won't be an issue when the stock DV is completely bypassed and replaced with a full atmosphere venting BOV.

God I sound like such a RlCER.
 
Last time I tried blocking off the DV, I made a plate out of aluminum and bolted it on to the turbo, and left the DV plugged in but just hanging there, the car would go limp after 5psi.
Maybe leaving it plugged in was my problem??? Hmmm, either way this seems to be a nicer solution than mine. Not bad for $22.

but where would we tap for a vac line? the same place as a boost gauge? there arent very many vac sources on this motor. for my 1.8t i tapped a new nipple in my intake mani but with the 2.0t's being plastic I think that would be hard.

That's what I did.

there is room, but it would be a pain if you already have the intercooler installed. its very tight down there.

im really curious to see if this actually works
Hopefully this works. I think my DV just went bad on me. It seems like ATP is starting to step it up a little for the 2.0t, It just pisses me off that they won't sell me the MAF housing they have seperately from their intake, They sell em for all other VW's.

I'm a bit confused on this. Would using this and running an aftermarket BOV make the car run rich?

Yes if you vent it to the atmosphere, you need to recirculate air back into the intake track so you don't change the fuel trims.
