It is recommended for vehicles where boost pressure has been increased with an ECU software upgrade, as well as for unmodified vehicles operating in warmer climates, as it eliminates a common failure of the original valve.<\/p>\n<p>The problem with the original valve is its very thin plastic diaphragm retaining ring, which becomes brittle due to thermal cycles and eventually fails. The failure does not always trigger the engine warning light, as the boost pressure can still open the valve. The driver may therefore not notice that power is being lost as a result. The diaphragm can no longer seal properly. With this failure, the valve can also disintegrate when removed from the turbocharger; in extreme cases, plastic fragments can enter the turbocharger and cause serious damage.<\/p>\n<p>Forge Motorsport has developed a solution with significantly greater reliability. The valve uses a piston instead of a diaphragm, so it has no diaphragm that can fail, and it is made entirely from aluminium. It replaces the original valve with a pressure- or vacuum-controlled piston valve, while retaining the desirable factory ECU control of activation. The valve has been tested on VAG Group vehicles for several years. The spring can be replaced for different boost pressure levels, while the solenoid valve is directly compatible with the wiring; the wiring loom is included.<\/p>\n<h3>The kit includes:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>1 \u00d7 FMDVDS3R valve<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 solenoid valve, bracket and bolts<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 2,000 mm vacuum hose with a 4 mm diameter<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 stronger yellow spring<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 wiring loom<\/li>\n<li>10 \u00d7 cable ties<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 M6 \u00d7 16 hex-head bolt<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 plain M6 washer<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 self-locking M6 nut<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 M5 \u00d7 35 self-tapping screw<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 instructions<\/li>\n<li>1 \u00d7 Forge keyring and sticker<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Suitable for:<\/strong> Citro\u00ebn DS3 I (S\/S).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quiet-operating piston recirculation valve for the Citroen DS3 1.6 Turbo with an electronically controlled bypass valve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fits:<\/strong> Citroen DS3 I 1.6 Turbo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":805419,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"product_brand":[144680],"product_cat":[2061],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-805417","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","tc_lang-en","tc_lang-hr","product_brand-forge-motorsport","product_cat-turbo-polnilniki-in-dodatna-oprema","product_shipping_class-dostava-teza-do-5kg","pa_proizvajalec-forge-motorsport","first","onbackorder","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/805417","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=805417"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/805419"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=805417"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=805417"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=805417"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tunerscapital.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=805417"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
