Relocating Diverter Valve

[madkebab]

Recently I seem to have lost a bit of boost so I am going to check all of my boost hoses. I also have some Samcos to fit. Whilst doing this I want to relocate my diverter valve to a more accessible position. I know a few of you have done this and just want to know what hoses I need to buy to enable me to do this.

What size in mm is the boost hose?

Also my boost gauge now doesnt seem to read zero when the engine is off, it sits just below, is there a way to recalibrate the gauge?

Cheers

Hi Simon,

Forge do a DV relocation kit...This is the best kit to use. Its a felxible samco hose which connect to the stock DV location on the TIP, and the DV site in an adaptor in the hose onto the TB.

under engine, turbo products, divertor valves. The kit is meant to be use on Golf platform, however, i cant see why you couldnt use it on the A4 too. Take a look and see that you think.
