n75 valves.....

anybody had any experience with these?

which one is best for a remapped awt?

i've heard that the passat awt doesnt like the n75j, so would i be best of sticking to a standard n75 of getting a n75j? n75k? etc?

any thoughts guys :ymhug:

Polished lip either way :-bd btw paint strippers including notrimors have had a certain chemical taken out of them now and they all seem to be pretty shizer since.

Re: dump vavle

if u have a map sensor (b5.5) then u can run a blow off!

if u dont have a map sensor (b5) then u cant!

.....schimples

a splitr will work as it dumps only a percentrage of boost pressure. but u cant run them fully open on a 1.8t as its not a twin piston. u would stall every time u dropped to idle.
