I've fitted mine like this

**irf** · Thursday 20th November 2008, 13:06

it will work on either pipe but the norm is to fit it as near to the throttle body as possible. there's obviously a techie reason but i don't know it.yet.

The reason why you should put it as close to the TB is so that the boost can be expelled as far from the turbo as possible.
Forgetting all Chav Tastic reasons why you would fit a DV, the main reason is without a device for getting rid of the boost when the throttle is closed the boost would rush back to the turbo and smash into the compressor blades causing it to stall putting immense load on the turbo shortening its life and also when you get back on the throttle the turbo had to spool up again making it feel laggy.

Mine is like this.

Hope this helps.

Yep hit nail on the head there, you put it as close to the throttle as poss because that is the first place the air hits when the throttle is closed, Walter Leever, your reverse IC pipes are real sweet, where did you get them from?

Sorry to hijack
