Hi to all
Could someone help in letting me know, if they have had a dump valve fitted, and if they cause problems on the car? should i have it removed, finding insurance expensive, and warranties do not cover them.  |

Hi Evonne,
the 660cc Copen turbo already has a recirculating dump valve fitted as standard you just dont get the noise as with an aftermarket one. They help prolong the life of your turbo by releasing gasses when you change gear, this keeps you're turbo spinning instead of stop starting all the time. So no they dont damage anything. Insurance companies just want an excuse to charge you more. Happy motoring Tim |
