Blanking plate

[shrekblackR]

Hi guys with a Blanking plate for recerc do I need to remove anything or just take off old plate and replace cheers

[p fandango]

you'll need to bung up the pipe that went to the recirc valve as well, thats it

[shrekblackR]

So do I remove the recirc or just the Blanking plate of the top

Remove the re-circ, it has 3 bolts, then fit the plate using the same bolts.

You going to be running a DV?

i've only heard hearsay (not the group) saying they damage them & think that theory is taken from other cars which run higher boost levels than us, quite a few members posted up saying "they've had no recirc/dump valve for ???? time with no issues" when it came up before
