GFB’s DV+ solution couldn’t be simpler - keep what works and replace what doesn’t. Description Worldwide Patent and Design Patent Pending Retains the factory solenoid coil for seamless integration Replaces plastic valve parts with metal for reliability and strength on chipped engines Direct-fit replacement with GFB’s TMS benefits Exclusive “pilot-actuated” valve mechanism for rapid response at high boost GFB expands the DV+ range with a direct-fit solution for the weak factory diverter valve used on many European vehicles. The solenoid coil itself from the factory-fitted valve is great (the ECU opens it faster than any pneumatic valve so why replace it?), but the weak point however is the valve mechanism itself. So GFB’s DV+ solves this problem by replacing just the valve parts with an anodised billet aluminium housing fitted with a brass piston machined to exacting tolerances. The end result is sharper throttle response, lightning-fast valve actuation, and it will hold as much boost as you can throw at it. Other manufacturers’ products involve replacing the entire system with a traditional pneumatic valve, requiring long vacuum hose runs, additional parts for tapping into the intake manifold vacuum, plus either a different solenoid valve to actuate the pneumatic valve or a ballast resistor to plug into the OE wiring loom. All these additional items result in a product that is slower, less responsive, more expensive and takes much longer to install. GFB’s DV+ solution on the other hand is more responsive, less expensive, easier to install, and doesn’t cause compressor surge/turbo flutter. Oh, and it doesn’t require different springs or frequent re-builds. What will it fit?

FITMENT NOTE: Abarth 500 models - This part only fits vehicles fitted with a Garrett turbo. It will not fit models fitted with the IHI Hybrid turbo as the configuration is different. BMW 135i - this part will only fit the N55 single-turbo engine. The N54 twin-turbo model doesn't use a diverter valve so our T9356 will not fit vehicles with this engine.       SHARPER THROTTLE RESPONSE FASTER BOOST RECOVERY ON GEARSHIFT SOLVES BOOST LEAKING ISSUES BUILT TO LAST European manufacturers are pushing their engines to the limit.

THE NEW DV+ FOR ALFA ROMEO GIULIA 2.0L & BMW X5M/X6M (NEED 2 VALVES FOR X5M/X6M)! GFB’S DV+ SOLUTION COULDN’T BE SIMPLER – KEEP WHAT WORKS AND REPLACE WHAT DOESN’T. Uses factory solenoid coil for seamless integration Replaces plastic valve parts with metal for reliability and strength – especially important on tuned engines Direct-fit replacement with GFB’s TMS benefits Exclusive “pilot-actuated” valve mechanism for rapid response at high boost GFB expands the DV+ range with a direct-fit solution for the weak factory diverter valve used on many European vehicles. The solenoid coil itself from the factory-fitted valve is great- the ECU opens it faster than any pneumatic valve so why replace it? The weak point however, is the valve mechanism itself. GFB’s DV+ solves this problem by replacing the valve parts with an anodised billet aluminium housing, fitted with a brass piston machined to exacting tolerances. The end result is sharper throttle response, lightning-fast valve actuation, and it will hold as much boost as you can throw at it. Read all about the DV+ story below. Other manufacturers’ products involve replacing the entire system with a traditional pneumatic valve, or include a solenoid valve with the diverter. These approaches add unnecessary cost and additional parts (in some cases requiring long vacuum hose runs, mounting brackets etc). All these additional items result in a product that is slower, less responsive, more expensive, and takes longer to install. GFB’s DV+ solution on the other hand is more responsive, less expensive, easier to install, and doesn’t cause compressor surge/ turbo flutter. Oh, and it doesn’t require different springs or frequent re-builds either. GET BETTER PERFORMANCE, FASTER BOOST RECOVERY AND DON’T PAY FOR WHAT YOU DON’T NEED!   The DV+ Story: Better Performance – More Reliable Many late-model European cars use ECU controlled solenoid-type diverter valves. This is a good concept because the valve can react very quickly and it only opens when it needs to. However, there are some problems with these valves; The diaphragms are weak and known to rupture, especially if boost has been increased. Once this happens, the valve will no longer hold boost pressure. The plastic lip that surrounds the diaphragm is very thin and pieces can break off, potentially ending up going through the turbo. Additionally, the solenoid on the OE diverter is directly connected to the valve mechanism, which is not ideal because neither it nor the return spring are strong enough to open and close the valve reliably at high boost. With problems like this, you can see why other aftermarket manufacturers assume the best solution is to replace the factory diverter entirely, or change it to a purely pneumatic system. Unfortunately though, whilst their replacement kits might be stronger than the factory diverter, their slower response speed and lower flow do not justify the extra cost and complexity – more of a compromise than a solution. GFB has taken a different approach to deliver a complete solution that solves existing problems and improves performance, without compromise or a hefty price tag. The DV+ addresses the factory valve problems with a very simple and elegant solution. Keeping the factory solenoid, the DV+ retains all the benefits of the stock system. Also replacing the valve parts with indestructible metal components ensures strength and reliability, no matter how much boost you run. That’s not all; rather than using the solenoid to directly actuate the valve, we’ve introduced a unique “pilot-actuation” system. This means the solenoid only has to control airflow through a small passage that is then used to open and close the piston (rather than opening and closing the piston directly), so it doesn’t matter how much boost you push through it, the DV+ will open and close reliably without ever exceeding the solenoid’s capability. This feature also improves on the factory system by opening the valve progressively in response to boost pressure, so it only opens as much as required to get the job done (the factory valve simply opens and shuts, it cannot partially open if boost pressure is low), resulting in better throttle response.       SHARPER THROTTLE RESPONSE FASTER BOOST RECOVERY ON GEARSHIFT SOLVES BOOST LEAKING ISSUES BUILT TO LAST European manufacturers are pushing their engines to the limit.
