- This DIY is for the MK6 Golf R (2011-2013).
Here's I will cover how to install your new DV+ from Go Fast Bits. I'll also be replacing the Diverter Valve Solenoid since I'm already down there. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
thats the n80 valve right next to the div pretty easy to remove that to did it today😀
Yeah, it's right out in the open. Love it when parts are that easy to get to. 😁
Hey man, great video. How did the modification work? Did it help with the hesitation at all?
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback.
And yes, it definitely helps with the hesitation a slight bit. It's not a huge power mod but you'll definitely feel it. And if you're wondering if it'll make any whoosh(intake noises) or flutter(release noises), then yes. The DV+ still makes a nice and subtle whoosh noise when accelerating and, sometimes when letting off of the accellerator, will produce a slightly more than subtle flutter noise.
I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video, goodluck with your future modifications 🤟
@@paulrochavalencia4192 thanks for the reply bro. That's great to hear. Yea I have 2 things happening on my golf R one is to do with dead pedal in the first 10% of travel (have a Sprint Booster on the way) but there is also some delay on how the turbo kicks in after shifting gears. So was hoping this would help. Thanks 😊
Have you had any problems yet with the gfb dv+? Also I been hearing that you have to lubricant the main plunger every few months too
I personally haven't had any issues with it. I've been running it for several months now. Maybe I'll do a video on checking the plunger to see what it looks like after running it for about 5-6 months?
My top psi for this car has always been around 22-23psi. I don't normally punch the gas as much as some enthusiasts do, but when I do, I still get those same numbers when making boost. Same numbers since when I first installed the DV+.
@@paulrochavalencia4192 alrighty thank you for your response
Does it change the noise of the turbo pression somehow or not at all?
My car runs a bit quieter than others since it has a closed airbox. Before the install you were not able to hear a turbo flutter. Once I installed the DV+, I can hear a turbo flutter at high acceleration lift-offs. What I mean by that is: you hear a flutter once lifting your foot off the gas pedal after an aggressive acceleration.
All-in-All, it's not a very noisey/loud mod.
About a yr has passed since this video, how is the DV+ holding on?
DV+ is still running well! I still have it installed, and it still holds the ~23psi that my current tune is set to. I'm not sure if it was just a break-in period thing, but it used to make a noticeable (not loud) flutter noise that can be heard from inside the cabin. Now it's a lot more quieter. The forums i sifted through say it's not supposed to be loud in the first place, so the reduction of noise is not something that has concerned me.
Mechanically and performance-wise, it has served me well and i'm lovin' it. Haven't looked back since i installed it.
the reduced noise and flutter is because this div valve makes less compressor surge so u wont get that flutter sound to protect turbo its more of a performance upgrade than sound. u keep boost pressure better so better pedal responsivness
@@paulrochavalencia4192 I bought one for my GTi (MK6), and is the opposite, it sounds louder. I noticed the car more responsive, I don't need to use too much throttle like I used to. And at full boost it holds it at 18-20psi, IE stage 2 on a 91 tune (with DSG tune as well).
Must say I bought the eBay china brand GFB for $25, shipped. Only thing I did was polish the brass piston, but so far is working fine.
@@psiturboi might have to try polishing the brass piston to see if that does anything with noise. Tille's comment above makes sense that the noise dies down after a while due to less compressor surge. So maybe once your car's computer gets used to the air flow, it'll quiet down? Either way, all-in-all, im glad yours worked out. I was on a 91 tune with 034 motors until i had to smog my car 😅
Did you get a high pitch whistling noise when shifting ?
I did get a noise like that for like 3 months. But it's better much silent now. Idk if it was like a "break-in" thing. It's not supposed to make noise.
As of right now, I still have it installed, and my boost is still holding up to the 22-23psi my car is tuned for. So i'd still recommend it. 👌
