Product Description

Fits 1.4T, 1.8T & 2.0T FSI and TSI engines, including the late 2011-2013 2.0 engine fitted with the IHI turbo, (the 1.4T needs additional fitting kit FMBGFK3)

We recommend servicing your valve every 3 years, or 20,000 miles, whichever comes sooner

Forge Motorsport offer this valve option for the 1.4T, 1.8T & 2.0T FSI and TSI engines, including the late 2011-2013 2.0 engine fitted with the IHI turbo, (the 1.4T needs additional fitting kit (FMBGFK3) found in a wide range of vehicles from VW, Seat, Skoda and Audi.

This valve represents the latest evolution of part number FMFSITVR, The result is a full replacement recirculating valve that integrates seamlessly with the OEM electronics and results in absolutely no fault codes, no check engine lights, and no detriment to the performance of the vehicle in any way. Like our full replacement atmospheric valve option, the FMFSITVR and FMFSITAT is fully engineered to remedy the failure issues experienced with the OEM solenoid valves when their diaphragm may rupture which would effectively result in a boost leak.

Our valve uses full billet alloy construction with a piston based internal design that provides for significantly improved reliability over the OEM valves along with lightning fast response. This valve is particularly well suited to the B7 and B8 chassis Audi A4 and A5 with the 2.0T engine. The valve mounting location on these vehicles is positioned particularly close to the frame rail of the chassis, and the overall installed height of our standard replacement valve and spacer combination is such that it conflicts with the chassis at this location.

The FMFSITVR valve has a much shorter overall installed height, which enables fitment of this recirculating valve option onto the B7 and B8 chassis whereas this was previously not an option. Another particularly unique feature of this product is the included intake manifold tap used to source a vacuum reference for the operation of the valve. This piece also has two other available provisions from which an intake manifold reference can be taken. These extra manifold references can be used for a boost gauge signal, and even a water/meth injection trigger where applicable. If this to be installed to the 1.4 Turbo engine, it will be necessary to additionally purchase our boost sensor adaptor FMBGFK3 - please see below in Related Products.

Note: This will ONLY fit the 1.4 turbo engines up to early 2013, where the turbo is mounted at the front of the engine bay. It will not fit engine codes CMBA & CXSB

DETAILS

Complete the aggressive aesthetic of your RS3 8V Sportback (Pre-facelift) rear with our rear pods/spats - known for their durability and strength. Our newly developed RS3 Sportback Pre-facelift range shares the same strength, durability and technology as our popular Audi S3 and Golf R line up which is trusted by many enthusiasts. Pre-pressed brass fittings on the rear pods allow for installation of our adjustable rear pods/spats winglets (sold separately) to allow for further customisation to individual taste.

All our lip splitters are made from a thick polyethylene composite, making it the strongest product of its type on the market. Each splitter is model specific in its development and design to ensure perfect fitment. The entire production process is done is our Bayswater factory making us proudly Australian made and owned.

KIT INCLUDES

• RS3 8V Sportback (PFL) rear pods/spats V3 (Pair)
• 2 Flow Designs stickers
• Fitting kit with black stainless hardware

MATERIAL & FINISH

• 10mm thick polyethylene composite, bevelled edges
• Hand polished satin black

HOW IS YOUR SPLITTER SO STRONG?

Each splitter is developed to become an integral part of your stock body kit, giving it unrivalled rigidity and strength so it can absorb scrapes and protect your bumper.

WHY DO YOU USE POLYETHYLENE COMPOSITE FOR YOUR PRODUCTS?

Strong, impact-resistant, doesn't corrode or chip, and has excellent abrasion resistance (eg. scraping on driveways!)

WHAT ABOUT CARBON FIBRE?

As strong and light as carbon fibre is, it cracks on impact or when under load and/or stress. Clearcoat can eventually fade or crack, becoming undesirable.

USE OF ABS PLASTIC

Please note that although all our precision-made ABS accessories are extremely strong and durable, they do not hold the same shatterproof label as our 10mm thick polyethylene composite splitters. The accessories are manufactured in ABS with the intention that they will be lighter, bolt-on attachments that will improve aesthetics and are easily replaceable if they become damaged from varying road conditions.

DETAILS Our adjustable rear spat winglets will bolt directly onto our RS3 8V Sportback (Pre-facelift) rear spats/pods thanks to the pre-pressed in threaded brass fittings on our rear spats/pods. Fitting kit is provided to ensure perfect fitment and can be adjusted to your liking. Adjustments can be made anywhere between 5mm-20mm on each side increasing the overall width up to 40mm!
