    Hi Chaps;

    I'm looking at the Forge Blow off Spacer for the 1.4-2.0 VW/Seat/Skoda's

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-AUDI-S...hash=item33914c0f25:m:mivEbEc2kX1XLndX58PpVVQ

    I have one question in that is it going to affect performance?

    The way I understand it is that the air is re-circulated into the turbo, if its blowing off, you're wasting potential? Even if it does sound gorgeous...

    any advice would be much appreciated!

    Regards

    Sam

    Hi Sam,

    I've put the forge spacer on and I have an itg filter not had a drop in power or noticeable drop
    How I take it as the 1.4 has a supercharger unit so it generates boost from that, So there's no lag from dumping all the air.
    I use to have a 1.8t 9n3 which it was recommended to get a recirc valve because of it dropping air out but I think the way the new 1.4 engine is don't have that problem?

    Cheers,

    Jon
