When you buy a GFB diveter valve only to realize

F30metrix · 09-04-2019, 09:07 PM

That when you're about to install it in your F30, you see the SAME exact diverter valve the previous owner already installed

I almost feel like installing the GFB DV+ is a right of passage in N20 modding

Still debating on installing mine, it's just dusting in my garage.

Yes at the top it says GFB and its more like a spacer between the stock diverter valve itself.

It's a PITA but I'd say turbo replacement is the true test of willpower.

When I did my DV+ it honestly wasn't that bad. Just persistence.

If anyone wants some tips let me know. There's a toolset from Home Depot you can get which doesn't require grinding. I also would take out your turbo inlet.

Is it the same way kiemotorsport did his DV+ swap? I'm thinking I should just get a professional mechanic to installed them.

Yep, followed his video.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to get it professionally done. I'd just make sure to get it done at a shop you trust because there are aspects to the install which are easy to screw up.
