Reinforced dump valve spacer GFB DV+ T9358 Mercedes / Ford / Volvo

The GFB DV+ is an innovative solution for improving the performance of turbocharged engines equipped with factory dump valves (DVs). It retains the benefits of existing technology while addressing its weaknesses, providing increased reliability, improved engine response, and the ability to maintain high boost without compromising valve durability.

Easy Installation: Direct replacement for the factory bypass valve without major modifications.
Improved Performance: Better ability to maintain boost under high pressure without leakage or system failure.
Lower Cost: Less expensive than complete replacement systems while providing superior performance.
No Turbo Surge: Reduces the risk of turbo flutter and other boost problems.
TMS Technology: The DV+ incorporates GFB's TMS (Turbo Management System) technology, which allows the engine to recover boost pressure more quickly after a gear change. This helps restore maximum power up to 30% faster, improving engine responsiveness.

Seamless Integration: The DV+ uses the stock solenoid coil, which is controlled by the ECU (vehicle computer) for optimal responsiveness. This allows for easy installation without having to change the entire system.

Improved Reliability: Replaces stock plastic valve parts with robust metal components (anodized aluminum housing and brass piston), increasing durability, even under high boost pressure. The weak plastic diaphragms and springs of stock systems are often prone to breakage, resulting in loss of boost and reduced performance.

Faster throttle response: The pressure-controlled mechanism allows for gradual opening and closing of the valve, unlike the stock valve which operates in a binary (open or closed) manner. This allows for a more precise and instantaneous response during acceleration, especially under high boost pressure.

Compatibility with many European models: The DV+ is designed to work with the solenoid-type diverter valve systems found on many newer European vehicles. This means it offers a direct-fit solution without the need for additional adapters or modifications.

No compromise: Unlike other kits that replace the valve with traditional pneumatic systems, which are often less responsive and more expensive, the GFB DV+ retains the best aspects of the original system while addressing its shortcomings. It does not require additional components such as vacuum hoses or ballast resistors, simplifying installation and improving performance.

The GFB DV+ is the ideal solution for turbocharged vehicle drivers looking to improve the reliability and responsiveness of their supercharger system without having to replace the entire valve system. It combines simple installation, faster throttle response, and improved durability, while remaining affordable. Thanks to its metal components and ingenious design, the DV+ ensures optimal performance, even under high pressure.
