Looking for some advice or tricks to install of Diverter Valves (brand to buy undecided)and new boost hoses including F-hose on 01 996 TT Saw the DIY post and will use. Should I or do I need to lower engine to install DV's and F Hose? Seems like only way to do. Any advice on doing this install at home. I have lowered engine before, taken off back bumper and feel comfortable with hose install but never touched DV's. Thinking Synchronic's or Agency Power. Not sure if i want boost to blow off and not re circulate. The BOV sounds a little ghetto- maybe not suited to Porsche.

Thank you

Buy a set of Forge from Vivid, I just bought a set along with Switzer hoses. Forge comes with a choice of springs to choose the psi setting of the DV, just use the one that comes installed when you receive them. They are yellow.

here is a good DIY, some say that is better to lower a little bit the engine( you don't need to take off the rear bumper) mine where mounted w/o lowering the engine. I have the Agency power dv's but i didn't buy the f hose.

don't buy the BOV ones is a porsche not a subaru!

I think that samco is the provider of all the hoses in the market...
