This is a hybrid DV allowing you switch easily between recirc and full VTA.
You do need to remove the recirc pipe off you factory DV and attach it to this for the recirc plumbing.
I want to fit this to my car, but it won't fit with the aftermarket TMIC I have otherwise it would not be up for sale
Looking for £125 plus postage
Same as this only black

This will fit all newage cars. You need to remove the elbow from the standard recirc (2 cross head screws) and fit it to this one and it then connects the same way as the factory one.

I was considering changing the intercooler so this would fit, but it is possibly sold now. Seriously thinking about a front mount after reading the Greenwood Racing tab that hints at standard internal running good up to 400bhp and you just need to be sympathetic with the gearbox - cryo-freeze the gearbox internals for a little more strength

I'm not worried about big BHP - 400 will be more than enough, but I want to keep the 5-speed because I like the ratios, and I'm not into drag style racing/starts, I much prefer the twisty stuff so weight loss, some added torque and good handling/stopping are my priorities. Handling is sorted, brakes are planned and the power will be later this year with the money I'm going to save working overseas for 6-months

All sounds good and makes sense. I know where your coming from over the Gearbox. Could you get a Water Spray for the Intercooler. I know on ScoobyClininc's Web Page they have pics of there Intercooler's on cars. Not sure how much they are though! Look the part Don't they.

TBH, I'm just not happy with the fit of the intercooler. I had to engineer some spacers as it would catch (and split) the wastegate hose. It works well enough, but the fitment is just not quite right, and because I've had to raise it to clear the wastegate it now catches on my Kakumei intercooler splitter and the hose is pulled across a little

See what you mean. Suppose the good thing is as you said your away, so the money kind of just sits in the bank. As i've seen some people in the past, they have mint cars look at but running wise. There Crap. All cos they want it to look good, but won't spend the money under neath. Won't run without The Heart. ****'s!
