MK7 Golf R \u0026 8V S3)","description":"\u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latest addition to the VTA range is a blow-off valve designed specifically for late-model Audi, VW, Skoda, and SEAT 1.2 and 1.4TSI models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese engines come from the factory with no diverter valve of any kind, which results in turbo compressor surge every time the throttle is closed after boosting. The intake is acoustically tuned to suppress the fluttering sound of compressor surge, but it does not eliminate the effect of pressure pulses – that is what diverter and blow-off valves were originally designed to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GFB VTA re-introduces a blow-off valve into the 1.2\/1.4 TSI system, which eliminates compressor surge to protect the turbo, and delivers the signature blow-off “whoosh” when lifting off the throttle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause these engines do not run a MAF sensor, there is no chance of adverse drivability or fuelling issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VTA clips directly into the turbo’s charge piping, replacing a short plastic joiner with a billet CNC machined section onto which the VTA mounts. The kit also includes a boost tee and vacuum hose that clips onto one of the manifold vacuum ports to source a vacuum signal for the VTA valve. This boost tee has a second port that can be used to connect a boost gauge (not included), or plugged off if not required. The whole kit can be fitted in minutes with no tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVTA or DV+?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepends if you want sound or not. Both valves are constructed with the same quality materials and valve mechanism, and both offer the same performance and reliability benefits. However, the VTA vents to atmosphere for sound whilst the DV+ recirculates the air to keep it quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose a VTA over a “BOV spacer”?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“BOV spacers” are cheap and they make sound. But that’s it. All the inherent performance and reliability issues you get with the factory diverter valve remain, because a spacer doesn’t change the diverter valve in any way. The VTA improves the operation of the diverter valve for sound AND performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose a VTA over a kit that includes a solenoid?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause there’s no performance benefit to replacing the factory solenoid, only a much higher price! If a VTA with the factory solenoid can open in a couple of hundredths of a second, why pay more than you need to?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDV+, GFB’s VTA range of BOVs utilise GFB’s proven TMS Technology to ensure rapid boost recovery on gearshift and optimum throttle response, as well as superior boost holding. However, where the DV+ and the VTA range differ is what they do with the vented air. VTA BOVs vent to atmosphere to make the signature turbo blow-off sound, where the DV+ recirculates the air to keep it quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach valve in the VTA range is designed specifically for the applications we list them for, ensuring the best fit and performance. Most of the VTA range are designed for use on cars with solenoid type factory diverter valves, and in those cases the VTA kit will retain the solenoid and ECU control. Like the DV+ though, it replaces the weak factory valve internals to ensure strength and reliability, especially in high boost applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther versions of the VTA are designed for use on cars that do not have any kind of factory fitted diverter valve. Vehicle manufacturers have deleted the troublesome solenoid type diverter valve from some of the newer models, but this leads to turbo compressor surge which can be taxing on the turbo in the long run. The VTA valves for these cars are designed to re-introduce the function of a diverter\/blow-off valve to help protect the turbo in the long term and provide a blow-off sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudi \u003c\/strong\u003eA3 MK3 8V1 3-Door hatchback (2012 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TFSI 122hp, 1.2 TFSI 105hp, 1.4 TFSI 140hp, 1.2 TFSI 110hp, 1.4 TFSI 125hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudi \u003c\/strong\u003eA3 MK3 8VA 5-Door Sportback (2012 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TFSI 140hp, 1.2 TFSI 105hp, 1.4 TFSI 150hp, 1.2 TFSI 110hp, 1.4 TFSI 125hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudi \u003c\/strong\u003eA3 MK3 8V7 Cabriolet (2013 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TFSI 140hp, 1.4 TFSI 125hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudi \u003c\/strong\u003eA3 MK3 8VS Saloon\/ Limousine (2013 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TFSI 140hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeat \u003c\/strong\u003eAltea MPV\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(2007 To 2016)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeat \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIbiza MK5 Hatchback \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(2010\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLater\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeat \u003c\/strong\u003eLeon MK3 Hatchback (2012 and Later)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkoda \u003c\/strong\u003eFabia NJ5 Estate (2014\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand\u003cspan\u003e Later\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeat \u003c\/strong\u003eOctavia \u003cspan\u003eMK3 Hatchback \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(2014\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLater\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeat \u003c\/strong\u003eRapid NH3 Liftback( 2015 and Later)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolkswagen \u003c\/strong\u003eBeetle 5C Hatchback\/ Convertible (2011 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.2 TSI 105hp, 1.4 TSI 160hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolkswagen \u003c\/strong\u003eGolf MK7 Hatchback\/ Estate (2012 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e1.2 TSI 86hp, \u003c\/span\u003e1.2 TSI 105hp, \u003cspan\u003e1.2 TSI 110hp,\u003c\/span\u003e 1.4 TSI 122hp\u003cspan\u003e, 1.4 TSI 140hp, 1.4 TSI MultiFuel 122hp\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolkswagen \u003c\/strong\u003ePolo MK5 Hatchback (2014 To 2017)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TSI 150hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolkswagen \u003c\/strong\u003eScirocco MK3 Coupe (2008 and Later)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.4 TSI 122hp, 1.4 TSI 160hp, 1.4 TSI 125hp, 1.4 TSI 150hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eT9430\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufactured\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e by\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGo Fast Bits (GFB)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Go Fast Bits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48737551581409,"sku":"T9430","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/7608\/4961\/files\/Go_Fast_Bits_Audi_VW_VTA_Blow-Off_Valve_Inc._MK7_Golf_R_8V_S3.jpg?v=1784848055","url":"https:\/\/mlperformanceusa.com\/products\/go-fast-bits-audi-vw-vta-blow-off-valve-inc-mk7-golf-r-8v-s3","provider":"ML Performance USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
