Guys, some one know if the oem diverter was upgrade ? Ecstuning is selling a DV with a new design, looks like a piston.

About the vag upgrade ... You are using still this upgrade ? I saw the thread that czar talk abouts the leak, but it was on the 710D, i dont know if the 710G have the same problem.
About the alta spring on vag internals or oem DV. I read here that in some situations could cause surge, is that right ?

Below 11657593273 was the older design, the design before that the diaphragm tended to crack.

Just swapped my old version for the new. My diaphragm wasnt broken yet. The new one cuts the yoyo when going on-off boost from multiple to one time, if that makes sense. It doesn't eliminate it like a stiffer spring would, and should keep factory mpg.
#32
Yesti, sorry i didnt understand. Are you liking this new one ? It handle more boost ? I bought the alta spring too, do you think it is a good combo ?
#33
Yes, it's been revised a couple times. That's the latest. They got away from that diaphragm version.

I like the new one. Remember this is the OEM replacement valve meant for a stock engine/psi. That being said I am running peak of 20psi and it handles it fine. I did not replace the spring with a stiffer (alta) spring.

All n14 and N18.

We just found O-ring that fits as an upgrade also. Or replacement.
This works for that main yellow/range o ring:
