DCi dumpvalve?

[StevenMc29]

Possible? Expensive?

Not for me btw. For a mate whos not a member. Thought someone on here could shed some light on the subject.

DCi65 if that makes any difference?

im sure its possible, although I may be wrong someone once told me that dump valves on diesels isnt so good?

 

[StevenMc29]

Really? Seems to be quite a few diesels about here (non clios) with them.

Do produce enough boost to make a hiss?

 

[StevenMc29]

I said that to him aswell because all the ones I've ever seen/heard have been like boras and d turbos with 1.9+ engines

 

[Macester]

more than enough boost, don't bother though, it's only for the noise

 

[StevenMc29]

Yea thats what he wants. Expensive? Hard to fit?

 

[Macester]

don't think its that expensive but effort to fit. I think manji on here fitted one on his a long time ago.

 

[ditz]

yeah but they need electronic actuation... as diesels dont produce enough vacuum in the inlet manifold to actuate it like you would on a diesel

hence the vaccum pump on diesels

 

[StevenMc29]

searched manji there but there wasnt any vids or anything. Anyone else done it?

had one on my dci 80 cant do it on a 65 no intercool so no boost pipes so no were for the dump valve to go on

65 has no intercooler?

 

[jesus]

I didn't know the dci's had a turbo... (or don't they? )

 

[DrR]

1.5 non trubro diesel wouldn't move.

I remember looking at 1.8 diesel fiesta, they had 0-60 over 20 seconds.

 

[jesus]

Lol! Never heard one on a Clio so I did wonder... old skool diesels ftl :nono:
