Advice : Do not buy a single piston DV, they have a yendancy to jam open !

I have a Twin Piston Forge Motorsport DV on my 855T5.

I love the sound it makes :D

Also the Bailey DV26 is loud and the DV30 is quieter supposedly, both are a good DV's.

There not everybody cup of tea, but you have already said you love the sound so give one a try, if you dont like it then just sell it on ;)

you will need to buy a fitting kit or as i did i bought a polished metal T peice which fit's in the middle on the silicone hose at the top of the intercooler them a 3" silcone hose of 25mm internal diamiter and the last thing is to get a 4mm silicone hose for the vacume of you can just dissconect the vacume pipe of the recirc valve and just plug it into your dv there is fitting kits on ebay for around £32

Hi stainesy

It looks suspiciously like a Twin Piston Bailey DV36 ;)

fitting kit is bit elusive tho, anyone got any advice on where to find bits, ive seached ebay, to no avail, just that t piece really, sure i can find some hosing?????
