GFB expands the DV+ range with a direct-fit solution for the weak factory diverter valve used on many European vehicles.
The solenoid coil itself from the factory-fitted valve is great (the ECU opens it faster than any pneumatic valve so why replace it?), but the weak point, however, is the valve, however, itself. So GFB’s DV+ solves this problem by replacing just the valve parts with an anodised billet aluminium housing fitted with a brass piston machined to exacting tolerances. Many late-model European cars use ECU controlled solenoid-type diverter valves. This is a good concept because the valve can react very quickly and it only opens when it needs to.
However, there are some problems with these valves. There are typically two types of solenoid-actuated diverter valves found standard on VAG and European cars, both of which have their shortcomings.
Common OE Problems:
- The diaphragm types are commonly known to rupture, especially when boost and temperature are increased as a result of chip tuning.
- The plastic piston-type leaks far more than most people realise (by design, not from wear), and doesn’t always close after a high-boost gear shift.
The DV+ addresses the factory valve problems with a very simple and elegant solution. Keeping the factory solenoid retains all the benefits of the stock system, and replacing the valve parts with indestructable metal components ensures strength and reliability no matter how much boost you run.
Customer Review:
Well, that was probably the best mod I've done in a while. I don't know if I had a torn dv or what, but the car just felt super smooth, built boost quicker, and held more boost at top end. Pulled like a freight train on the highway with my methanol spraying. It seems to respond quicker between shifts as well. Basically it's better everywhere

Have had this product installed on my Stage 2+ Golf R for awhile now and love it, boost comes on harder and stays on without any leaks or spikes. This has basically fixed the leaking and boost issues my stock DV couldn't seem to cope with. Unit is nice and stealth & retains the OEM ECU operated control rather than a full mechanical unit like some other units out there, so therefore this unit reponds faster. Overall love the product, does what it is meant to for half the price of any other product out there. Good work GFB, one happy customer :)

This product is great!I had been searching for a BOV/DV upgrade for my Audi S3 for a little while and I stumbled across this. I am very pleased with the results.The results surprised me. There was an instant improvement. The turbo spools up quicker
-
Fitted the DV+ to my 600 ps Audi TTRS the other day.First impressions are very good,holding boost nicely and throttle response is sharp.Looks like a well made quality part and well worth the money.
-
I've had the DV+ on my car for quite a few miles now, with no problems at all. It's still holding boost great, throttle response is better than oem, and the car is running awesome. I've spent much more and gotten much less on mods before, so this was a good buy in my book
-
The be all end all of DV's for the Audi, finally. I was sick of ripping the rubber diaphragm DV, and then got sick of the sluggish leaking performance from the revised "D" piston DV. There wasn't a happy medium until the DV+ came out. Ever since install, I've been extremely pleased and will back this product up 100%. It feels good to hold boost again, and have responsive throttle response when needed GFB, great work guys
-
So much better
My GTI is so much more fun to drive with the DV+installed. The unwanted noise from the intake is gone, prior it would hiss and howl with all the air leaking by my stock dv now its sealed up. Throttle in is much faster and accurate, its smooth and quick. Shifts don't cause a loss in power anymore, they feel faster and stronger now. Couldn't be any happier with such a small modification.
-
Everything is true
Better throttle response. Holds boost better at higher rpm. Hardly felt any boost lagg. Builds boost hella quicker. Sharper and louder bov sound with intake (awesome!). Def feel the difference between dv+ vs stock. Must have for mk7s.
-
This is a must buy! It almost eliminates boost lag! Throttle response is so much better! And you feel it through every shift. Especially dropping gears at a higher speed. 6th to 4th feels incredible!

GFB BOV
This is a must buy. Easy install. Noticed a huge difference in throttle response. No turbo lag.
-
Works great
Holds boost way better than the stock DV and helps hold boost at higher mph down shifts.

Gfb wen bad in 7 months going back to the stock diverter on my ko4 cc
-
Awesome
The go fast diverter vaulve was everything I expected with a tune it hold boost better than stock and make the throttle smoother and makes for a better driving experience
-
Thank you so much
So the reason of ordering this,
Is I installed Cobb CIA and Cobb tuning after install
It would make an annoying noise (not the turbo noise) so looked online did my research and found out this would help me the noise,
And YESSSS IT DID!!!
now that annoying noise is gone and I can finally hear the beautiful turbo
Thank you guys. -
Excellent
Honestly it work fantastic and I can tell how much faster boost builds and how it holds it a lot better. More than just the performance, I get peace of mind knowing I don't have to worry about that part later on due to excellent buildsmanship of the part. I have zero issues with the part so it gets 5 stars.

Thank you so much
Perfect fit on mk6
Sounds beautiful !
Fast shipping great website -
DV+ is awesome. It holds my boost at 12.5psi constant throughout all 6 gear shifts. Highly recommend.

Great delivery / Easy install
Super fast delivery. I had one issue with the installation (my own doing) and something for others to note, when removing the OEM DV, make sure you have a good hold of it and its secure when you remove the last bolt. I had a couple of parts fall into the engine bay but luckily they were easily retrieved.
Otherwise great product! working well so far. Great speedy delivery and thanks Modded Euros!

I added this modification after the Stage 1 APR ECU upgrade vavle lift. The boots comes on quicker and holds longer from about 1500 rpms. I would definitely recommend added this to you Audi A4!

Awesome, worth every penny no turbo lags

Worth its weight in gold
This thing is great awsome upgrade from the garbage ve sells its costomers must have for 1.8-2.0 platform it does everything it sez its nice to purchace a quality made product for once the only thing is the diverter is simple but getting to it and making the room takes some time but once ur done ur happy u took the time
