[s-cars] BPV 710N supersedes 710G?

[Mihnea Cotet]

Nope, 710G is what Audi will sell you in the US/Canada with 710N on the 
box, this is a commercial scam to get rid of old stocks.. I have used one 
710G last summer while tuning and the damn thing lasted 35 minutes of 26 
psi RS2 tuning. We finally got hold of a real 710N from a WorldPac 
distributor and the BPV is still working great at the minute I'm talking, 
and will sure still work ok for a while.

In my new S4 (1998 model year, 2.7TT), I have installed 2 leftover brand 
new 710G's that I hadn't used last summer, because the original 710Bs were 
shot, they lasted for 3 hours tuning on the stock K03s at 18 psi boost. Got 
2 brand new 710Ns and they're still working great after 2k miles spent 
doing WOT almost all the time with 19 psi and dynoed 332crank HP/389ft-lbs. 
Dyno tuning happened saturday, took me 2 hours to get it there with the 
stock exhaust, peak boost is 19 psi and 12 at the redline.

Just my 0.02 cents worth of 710G/710N experience.
