but the inlet pipe is alloy is it not and i dont know anyone who can weld alloy. Could i solder it? would it be strong enough? The t piece i was talking about as like this also would the dump valve be ok?

not the inlet manifold, (yes that is alloy) you weld it in the crossover pipe, that connects onto the turbo, over the engine, then fits onto the throttle body and the idle managment, if someone already has one fitted to the crossover pipe, can they post it up for these guys please, i have my DV on my cozzie IC.

Ive just fitted my dump valve. Ive done it the way you suggest for now and mounted it on the black pipe that comes off the boost pipe. Will this give the same effect as putting it on the boost pipe itself as its not very loud. Or do i just need to adjust the tension on the dump valve spring?? Its a baileys dv26

mine isnt very loud too. i think my bov is the same as yours. its the twin piston one without the crazy trumpet. its probably not that loud cos its only venting off about 7 psi whereas more powerfull cars with louder valves have to let more are out at a greater pressure- hence more noise.
