GFB diverter valve E70 35i?
Has anyone installed a GFB diverter valve on E70 35i?
I believe mine is going out at 92k miles, even if it isn't I'd like to replace it for peace of mind among a few other maintenance things I'm doing. I'd like to know if it's worth upgrading or putting a new OEM unit on. The truck has MHD stage 2+, VRSF charge pipe, and upgraded air filter, and a catless downpipe is coming soon. Thanks! |

Definitely worth it. What's the cost, like $150? It helps keep that boost pressure instead of being dumped off in to the atmosphere. Really helps for 0-60, keeps your truck pulling hard. Plus, it makes a cool farting noise after shifting.
Second best money I've spent on my ride, MHD tune being the best. |

That's why I had my mechanic do it, haha. He said it wasn't too bad. The hardest part is access, it definitely helps to have a car lift, and you'll need an extension with a U joint. Good luck!
