In its stock location the 2.0T diverter valve is located low in the engine bay within the turbo housing. The 2.0T DVR kit is designed to bring the diverter valve higher up in the engine bay, granting easier access for servicing and replacement.
Using the relocation kit has the side benefit of cooling the intake air temps. The factory diverter valve location directs hot, compressed air back into the inlet side of the turbo, resulting in higher intake air temperatures. Once relocated with the kit, the diverter valve vents cool air from after the intercooler back into the intake which results in lower intake air temps.
Further, this kit is the only one of its kind that allows the factory diverter valve to be relocated while keeping the wiring unmodified.
The included Diverter Valve adapter housing also allows any OEM or properly designed aftermarket DV to be used, which is a further cost savings for you. We recommend use of the 2.0T Mechanical DV for ensured long term reliability.
Compatible with FSI and TSI engines equipped with the OE K03 and IHI turbochargers and a tubular intake. Is not compatible with the OE FSI intake.
Please note: Some additional parts are required for installation on vehicles not equipped with a factory noise pipe. Please contact us for the complete list of items needed to install our DV Relocation kit on your vehicle.
