So can anyone recommend where I can get a HD TCV for my P2 "R" please ?
Tried google but I'm not having much luck.
Thanks, Etienne.

OEM are the best!

Thanks guys.
Sorry should of said its for a mapped car & I believe the O.E.M ones don't like the higher duty cycle from what I believe.
Standard are fine.
I got mine from mister-auto http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/boos...2908.03.0.html
it's gone up in price.

The two types posted up are very slightly different, the cheaper grey one is correct for TD04s and the black one for K24s. The mounting clips are different and the TCV to actuator ports are a different size. Using the K24 TCV on a car with a TD04 and the correct size hose for the turbo can cause a boost spike due to a possible leak on the hose. When both sealed they seem to give the same boost pressure with the same TCV Duty Cycle.
So I am best just fitting one of the black ones then ? (if so, bugger I ordered a grey one)
The TCV is for a 2006 MY R. I thought all R's had the K24 turbo ? Do the later ones like this have a TD04 then ?
Many thanks, Etienne.
I was under the belief they withstand higher duty cycle better, I have no proof of this, only what I've read on various websites.
Im sure one of the experts such as Tim could verify whether this is true or not ?
I suppose I could just change it every to be on the safe side as I do with my MAF sensor ?
No map on mine. Same plug direct replacement.
Have a read .

OK then, I will get another one of these ordered then for the 2003 "R" as I fitted an IPD unit to that car (foolishly thinking it was a precautionary fix).
Thanks for that Harvey, very interesting reading, I could of swore that was where I'd read about the IPD unit been the better option.
I've not done extensive testing myself with the two different types only logging when fault finding. On the car I use on track we have changed between either type several times and noticed no difference in boost and that runs over 95%TCV Duty Cycle. The grey ones do give peaky boost after about 10k miles of use the same as the black ones.
All the P2Rs did have K24s, I was referring to the fitment of the grey TCV on more suitable applications for the port size. If the hose to the actuator is secure and the TCV secured then either will work fine, an IPD one will not work fine...

I'd be willing to try another HD IPD TCV again, as unfortunately, when I had one fitted a few years ago I had lots of underlying boost issues, leaks etc that were masking any performance gains. Fitting a new stock TCV was the only way forward in diagnosing and elimination of faults.
Now my car is running 100% perfect, I'd like to see if they really do make a difference.
It's fair to say that a lot of ppl have fitted HD TCV's from IPD in the past, some before doing a Stage 0, and others without even realizing that they have faults or boost issues, leaks, weak components etc, etc. So it's under these circumstances that the IPD TCV would have been given a bad reputation, IMHO.
Now I'm not saying they are better than a stock Pierburg TCV, but, being more mechanical, they're must be some gains to be had from using one??
Who really knows?
Maybe I'll fit one and then report back!............

I've been told by a tuner that the grey tcv delivers about 0.2-0.3bar less boost that oem at same duty cycle. Off course that this refers to my particular engine with the k24.

I've got 4 different "HD TCVs" they all give higher boost than a new standard TCV. Higher boost will usually give slightly more power in the mid range BUT if it's more boost than the maps is intended for them it's a bad thing. In most instances you have to drive in a prescribed manor to help the ECU to adapt to the incorrect operation. Some maps adapt better than others.
