Blonde question but its the only way im gonna find out - what are N75 valves? Cos theres a few people replaced them. Where are they and what do they do?!

Its a little valve with three vac pipes going into it and its just after the MAF on the induction pipe mate

It controles boost maps. It normaly holds a bit more boost (2-3psi) and holds it longer in the rev range (I think)

I've heard that with adjustable dump valves (which yours isnt) that you should get them set up properly on a dump valve friendly rolling road as you can sometimes loose boost if they aren't set up properly! :confused:

Yours looks tidy though! :)

You shoud get a video of it put up on here! :D Would be curious to hear what it sounds like. :)

To be honest mate its not loud enough to capture on vid mate, but I've got no probs with boost. Does look good though [B)]

:roflmao: Bloody birds! I know what you mean though. Seagull shat eats into my paint and makes it go white and dull! If I see bird shite on my car in work - straight out with the sponge! :lol:

Looks nice! Really like the Cupra's! Especially in black! :drool:

Bit if an update.

I got a new N75H valve but took it off after 1 hour because it was causing boost surge :thumbd:. Also got a polo rear aero wiper while I was on vag parts ;)

While I was washing the car today for the north east rolling road day in the morning I also got round to putting my SCN sticker on that I've had for about 3 weeks :redface:
