GFB DV+ Recirculation Valve For MINI N18 Engines
The DV+ MINI N18 valve is part of GFB’s valve range that replaces inefficient original equipment. The DV+ valve replaces the standard plastic MINI valve with beautifully machined aluminium and retains the original electronic control so the Go Fast Bits' valve is still controlled by the MINI’s ECU.
The N18 variant is supplied in two halves; the valve and the solenoid. Hosing, included in the kit, joins these. The valve is split into two parts because engine bay space is tight on the N18.
The GFB valve improves boost holding capabilities which is ideal on tuned cars that have a increased boost levels. The GFB DV+ valve helps improve throttle response as it works faster. The benefit is particularly noticeable on gear changes and operating at 2000 - 3500 rpm. The DV+ N18 valve is slightly louder than the stock valve but still offers quiet operation.
If a louder noise is desired then consider the Forge Blow Off Valve, which will produce the typical "hiss" noise associated with turbocharged charges. The GFB DV+ valve does also address some of the typical failure points Lohen sees with the standard MINI valve such as pinched diaphragms and crack and broken plastic surrounding the diaphragm.
Suitable for manual and automatic cars.
Q. Does the DV+ valve bring on an engine light?
A. The DV+ valve should not flag an engine management light. We have however seen some examples when fitting a blow off valve that will cause an engine management light to be illuminated.
