GFB DV+ Performance (GTI MK5/Golf R MK6/S3) GFB DV+ Performance (GTI MK5/Golf R MK6/S3) GFB The VTA is a performance blow-off valve solution for Audi, VW, Skoda and SEAT vehicles with an electronic factory diverter valve. If you want sound with your performance (or performance with your sound!), GFB’s VTA delivers just that! By combining the proven performance benefits of our ground-breaking DV+ with atmosphere venting, the VTA delivers an aggressive blow-off sound, improved throttle response and boost recovery, as well as superior boost holding and reliability in extreme conditions.The VTA shares the successful DV+ design philosophy: “Keep what works, replace what doesn’t”This means we retain ECU control and the solenoid from the factory diverter to ensure the fastest possible response time, without the added and unnecessary cost of replacing the solenoid like some brands do.The weak part of the factory diverter has always been the plastic valve mechanism – this is the part we replace. The VTA features CNC machined billet components that last a lifetime, and we also change the valve operation method for better performance. The factory diverter valve can only operate in two states – open, or closed. When it opens fully at low boost, or during a partial throttle lift mid-corner, it causes increased lag and a noticeably non-linear boost transition.GFB pioneered the use of “pilot operation” in the DV+, which works by re-purposing the factory solenoid to control the pressure behind the piston rather than the piston itself. This allows the solenoid stroke to be much shorter, speeding up the response time and increasing the actuation force. More importantly, it allows the piston to open and close progressively in response to the amount of boost pressure present, which smooths boost transitions and reduces the lag caused by the factory diverter valve. It is this design philosophy that makes the VTA not only the best performing blow off valve solution, but also the best value on the market. Key features: TMS Technology for faster boost recovery on gearshift and during throttle modulation Improved boost holding ability Atmosphere venting for blow-off sound Retains ECU control Simple, direct bolt-on kits include everything you need to install Manufactured in Australia in accordance with ISO 9001 VTA or DV+? Depends if you want sound or not. Both valves are constructed with the same quality materials and valve mechanism, and both offer the same performance and reliability benefits. However, the VTA vents to atmosphere for sound whilst the DV+ recirculates the air to keep it quiet.Why choose a VTA over a “BOV spacer”? “BOV spacers” are cheap and they make sound. But that’s it. All the inherent performance and reliability issues you get with the factory diverter valve remain, because a spacer doesn’t change the diverter valve in any way. The VTA improves the operation of the diverter valve for sound AND performance.Why choose a VTA over a kit that includes a solenoid? Because there’s no performance benefit to replacing the factory solenoid, only a much higher price! If a VTA with the factory solenoid can open in a couple of hundredths of a second, why pay more than you need to?IncludedFitment 2003-2013 Audi A3 8P 2.0L 2005-2008 Audi A4 B7 2.0L 2007-2015 Audi A4 B8 1.8/2.0L 2015+ Audi A4 B9 2.0L 2006-2013 Audi S3 2.0L 2006-2014 Audi TT 2.0L 2006-2014 Audi TT S 2.0L 2009-2014 Audi TT RS 2.5L 2011+ Audi A6 2.0L 2008+ Audi Q5 2010-2014 Audi A1 1.4L 2015+ Audi RS3 8V 2004-2009 VW Golf GTI MK5 2.0L 2008-2013 VW Golf GTI MK6 2.0L 2008-2013 VW Golf R MK6 2.0L 2005-2011 VW Passat B6 2.0L 2010+ VW RSI 2.0L 2006+ VW Scirocco MK3 2.0L 2006+ VW Scirocco R MK3 2.0L 2011+ VW Tiguan TSI 2.0L 2007+ VW Tiguan TFSI 2.0L 2005-2013 Skoda Octavia MK2 1.4/1.8/20.
