Is it possible to blank off the recirc valve on my remapped t5 without fitting a dump valve? Will it do any damage ? Is there any more to it than romoving the valve, fitting the plate and blanking the vacuum hose?

Just fit a one way valve to the recirc valve pipe. Job done.

I've got a recirc blanking plate on mine, never had any problems with it at all.

Well... It won't increase the lifespan of your turbo that is for sure!
