Re: UrQ Bypass Valve - How To Add One.



Under hard acceleration you no longer hear the muffled thump as you let off
the throttle to shift up a gear. That thump was the turbo stalling as the
pressure wave rushed backwards. No exciting noises though. This is a bypass
valve, not a dump valve. This is a clean installation with no fuel dumping.
HTH.
