a petrol dump valve & a diesel dump valve are the same :wink:

its just the way you fit them thats different

u need to fit the dump valve into the pressure side if the  intercooler plumbing,

u then need to T into the brake vacum hose & to the T attatch the solenoid valve,from this take a small bore hose onto the dumpvalve,this is what makes it open,u then need to mount the micro switch so its full closed at when the throttle is released,u need to put a 12v supply up to the solenoid valve & use the micro switch to switch the earth for the solenoid valve,

then basically when u go from full open to closed in the middle of changing gear the solenoid valve will open & put a vacum to the dump valve & you get a tish  8)

Thats sounds pretty easy to do, but just to throw a spanner in the works its an auto ! so would only work when throttle is released which suits me, dont want to sound like a bus with every gearchange, just good to show off to the kids and their mates :D
