Hi everyone,

I've done a little bit of experimenting with a DV from a F56 (GP3) or F54/F60 JCW Diverter valve, and it seems a perfect for on R56 Turbos (N14 Cooper S stock turbo)

The only thing that needs to be changed is the plug connection going to the Diverter valve.

The JCW/GP3 DV seems to be built a lot better then most other ones on the market, and holds boost very well (currently running JCW tuning kit software, will go to stage 2 software soon).


Left is the F5x JCW/GP3 DV, right is the R5x/6x DV





Here is the part I have (PN May vary depending on region).

A perfect fit with the exact same bolt pattern, just bare in mind that the valves fit in one way only (the plug needs to face down and towards the wastegate actuator).

Feel free to post any questions/concerns down below

 

Do you happen to have connector shell & pin part numbers for this? What did you do?

 

That's good to know.......

 

Interesting….

Any pictures comparing the electric connector on the valve? I suppose just a jumper harness is needed.


Great first post, by the way!

 

I'm not too sure of the part numbers for the connector, but it's the common 2 pin type found on F generation of BMWs / Mini's. I got mine off of an old engine harness from an F30 3 series BMW with an N20 engine in.

Hopefully that helps a little bit

 

Thank you I appreciate it!

I unfortunately did not take a photo of the connectors at the time, whoops!

I simply cut off the old connector and crimped on the new plug, and has been holding boost very well, quite a lot better than the stock one did.

 

I couldn't find any hits from the numbers on the part in the picture, but 11658691854 seems to be the one? I can't find any google image hits but it's the only one I can find.
It gets a little complicated because a lot of the F56 gen cars don't have a DV at all, the F56 GP3 doesn't seem to be on RealOEM, and I couldn't find this under a few years of JCW F54/60.
Eventually I found it under the end of production F56 JCW, listed with B46D engine.

RealOEM shows a bunch of applications if anyone is looking for one from a junkyard.

If someone happens to come across one, it would be nice to have confirmation.

I also think the connector PN is 7615487
If you google that, it should give some options for straight replacement housing/pins/seals or flying lead options.

 

Yep its on those new turbos for the 300HP+ Most New MINIs dont have them, it looks like MINI just did it on the high HP MINIs and shared BMW engines.

I have already contacted Pierburg that makes the OEM part. They said maybe soon it will be released into aftermarket.

Genuine MINI part:

I think I literally fell out of my chair!

 

That's really insane.........

 

Yep, welcome to MINI $$$

This is what they price things at when they first come out, down the road the price may go down. I have seen some MINI parts that cost more then the compatible Rolls Royce part.

 

Hello,

Just an update, we can get the OEM from peirburg
