This valve is designed to fit the FSI and TSI engines of the VAG group (VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda) listed below, including the 2011-2013 2.0l engine using the IHI Turbo.

• 1.4T (with additional fitting kit FMBGFK3)
• 1.8T
• 2.0T

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. We designed the slots in the body to cover a large surface area, allowing for a quick release of air, resulting in a unique sounding dumpvalve.

 

This upgrade/replacement for your original equipment valve integrates seamlessly with the OEM electronics. Using a wiring harness and solenoid, both tested for each specific application, you can confidentially fit a Forge part knowing that there will be no fault codes, check engine lights, or performance issues with the vehicle!

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.

The OEM valve uses a rubber diaphragm and a plastic housing. Both of these materials, but especially the rubber is prone to failure. The rubber can stiffen and go brittle due to the heat from the engine, resulting in diaphragm splitting and boost leak.

Our valve uses full billet alloy construction with a piston based internal design, meaning the issues with the OEM can never happen with ours! To give you even more peace of mind, we made the internals of our valve serviceable. We recommend doing this every 3 years or 20,000 miles, whichever comes first. However, if you don’t want to service your valve yourself you can order the kit and ship your valve back to us and we will carry out the service free of charge! Simply contact us to arrange the service!

The OEM valve internals can also fail if you have your vehicle mapped as the rubber diaphragm is not always strong enough to cope with the increased boost pressure. We build our valves with a spring matched to the original pressure of the car, but include in the kit a spring strong enough to cope with a stage one remap. If you decide to increase the power even more you can guarantee the reliability of our valve by using this spring tuning kit!

This valve was designed by our highly skilled engineers using CAD software to ensure that it will fit with every listed compatible vehicle with ease! 

It 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. Compared to competitors our valve has a much shorter overall installed height.

The OEM part numbers we have replaced with our valve include:

• 06H145710B
• 06H145710C
• 06H145710D
• 06H145710F
• 06H145710G

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

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.
