DOn't think it's suitable for our cars. DV10's are scooby-specific fittings aren't they?

I thought any Dump Valve can be modded to fit any car :inquisiti

Mine is for a Skyline :speechles

With enough work, welding, cutting etc.... The DV10 doesn't have the correct size in/out ports.

Not worth the effort on a standard VR4. Ok if you've already got the correct hole in custom pipework.

I don't see anything to difficult.. And Deffo no Cutting and welding ??

Also thought there was only 1 port to connect the DV to ??

I think the diameter on mine was 28mm or 32mm !! I just fitted a piece of old Vacuum Cleaner Hard Pipe over the DV piece and then inserted it into the exit pipe on the VR4. And there it has sat for 2 years :speechles

Thats the whole point. This is the kind of connection the scoobies use: uploaded/1552/1151582437.jpg.

To get it to fit our cars (I think), you'd have to replace our valve with a T-piece and then fit the DV10 to the 3rd limb of the T. Might as well buy the correct valve - you'll end up spending less.
