Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • GFB Diverter Valve 2020 R-Line Tiguan

    Has anyone fitted a GFB T9351 diverter valve with an upgraded turbo intake?
    Does look like there is enough room.

    Depending on which intake pipe you have, the GFB valve may not fit. I saw on a video the other day that they have just released a brand new DV valve for VW which is shorter in length which will fit. (although it looks like its not on their website yet).

    Forward to about 17.00 minutes in this video to see it

      Your right, just spoke to GFB the complete diverter valve is not on sale yet, due early 2023. MCM got the prototype.

          I fitted the new T9381 DV+ to my Tig RLine today. Easy job, the slightly shorter length compared to the stock one helped when I put an aftermarket intake pipe as well

            Thanks for the update - what aftermarket intake pipe did you go with?

                Finally got my new GFB diverter valve & fitted it, very simple job 15mins.
                Interesting how much its changed the delivery of power with my bigger turbo & tune (the std valve must have been leaking).
                Worth every cent!

                  Which GFB model did you install? Has it done much to improve the throttle response (as advertised)?

                  My stage 2 Arteon is a bit laggy on the throttle and seems to be letting out little bursts of boost when accelerating moderately hard... might be normal, or possibly traction control cutting power maybe. Been looking into the diverter valve as a possible culprit and candidate for upgrade.

                    T9381 is their new slim line model.
                    Easy to fit, $250 well spent.

                        I did the install today on my Arteon - here's a brief write-up: Diverter Valve Upgrade - GFB DV+ T9381

                        It seems to have improved throttle response and boost a bit. Was a worthwhile upgrade IMO.
